Pierre Louis Henri Grévedon (1776 – 1860)
Pierre Louis Henri Grévedon, born in Paris on October 17, 1776 and died in the same city on June 1, 1860, was a French painter, lithographer and illustrator.
Henri Grévedon trained as a painter in the Paris studio of Jean-Baptiste Regnault, professor of painting at the École des Beaux-Arts de Paris. Henri Grévedon exhibited at all the salons from 1798 to 1806, receiving a second medal in 1790. In 1804, he exhibited Achilles landing on the shore of Troy, an allusion to Napoleon I’s planned landing in England. He was awarded first-class gold in 1805 and first prize for the torso in 1806. He competed unsuccessfully for the Prix de Rome in 1805 and 1806.
According to Henri Beraldi, he “travelled the world, seeking success in Russia in 1806, where he became agrégé of the Académie de Saint-Pétersbourg, with : La Mort d’Hector. In 1812, he moved to Stockholm, then London, returning to Paris in 1816. He soon devoted himself completely to lithography, and found in it a reputation that would not have come to him with painting.”
On August 14, 1810, at St. Catherine’s Church in St. Petersburg, he married Aimée Marie Sophie Louise Devin (1792-1864), an actress, who bore him four children: Henriette Louise Laure (1814-1895), Henri (1815-1892), Sophie (circa 1818-1890) and Camille Eugénie (1825-1889).
He executed numerous painted portraits, tableautins and miniatures, then drew directly on lithographic stone, working for Charles Motte’s studio in the 1820s. At the Salon of 1824, he won a first-class gold medal for the second time.
Among the personalities he represented between 1825 and 1845 were many actresses and dancers of his time, including Taglioni, Fanny Elssler, La Malibran, Léontine Fay, Lucile Grahn and Rachel.
He was named Chevalier de la Légion d’Honneur in January 1832.
