Careers
Initial work
Chaplin made his debut in the Salon with portraits, but he also painted landscapes, particularly the Auvergne countryside. His earlier work, from 1848 to 1851, was painted in a more realistic style, and is characterized by an interest in realism, which is a style that has been rebuilt in France by the Second Republic of France, which has the motto of LibertÃÆ'ÃÆ' ©, ÃÆ'  © galitÃÆ'  ©, fraternità ©  © , and was ruled for three years by the French republican government from the 1848 Revolution until the 1851 coup by Louis-NapolÃÆ' on Bonaparte. Realism is an artistic movement that began in France in the 1850s, after the Revolution of 1848. Since the late 18th century, Romanticism dominated French art and literature but was rejected by the Realists, who rebelled against the emotional display of the Romantic movement, seeking to describe individuals and situations a real and distinctive contemporary with truth and accuracy.
Chaplin painted many works in his early days, including a study of flowers on display at Salon de las Flores. Later, in the late 1850s, he abandoned naturalism, his early style, exchanged it with a more elegant, elegant and flexible technique that made him famous in France in his time as a portrait painter; hence he embraced the eminent, exuberant and fashionable French painter, FranÃÆ'§ois Boucher (1703-1770).
He also embraced the traditions of the great British painters. He developed his own style of painting but was inspired by British painters Joshua Reynolds and Thomas Gainsborough. He used to carve the works of Dutch artist Pieter Paul Rubens and get more influence from his work.
Later work
Gradually the muddy colors used by Chaplin turned white, gray and pink, depicting the model with a coral skin, mother-of-pearl by applying a delicate palette of red and light gray tones. After portraiture and attempting his skills on ornamental paintings, Chaplin took a genre painting in the 1850s. His favorite subject is the feminine grace of everyday life of a young woman. She describes women in several poses: resting; grooming; song; and reading. He captures them with lightness and carelessness and accentuates the elements of decorative composition.
Empress Eugene, Napoleon III's wife and admirer of "Pompadour style", quickly fell under the charm of the painter's neo-Rococo masterpiece. Chaplin is one of the favorite court artists of Napoleon III and Empress Eugà © nie. In 1859, when his portrait of Aurora was banned by Salon judges as "too erotic suggestive", NapolÃÆ' © at III defended Chaplin and canceled the disqualification order. He is equally rewarded as an interior decorator and appointed to overhaul the decoration of Eugene's queen room.
Her sensual image of women and young girls, often with erotic models displayed in foggy surroundings and often wearing transparent clothing, attracted the upper class and Parisian aristocracy during the Third Republic of France (1870-1940) that guaranteed her success and wealth. He was one of the most popular painters of his time, but today his work is almost unknown, despite the fact that his work hangs in many major museums around the world.
He uses his Rococo style for mythological scenes and genre scene paintings. Her genre image forms an important part of her work. In 1861, worked as a decorative painter. Chaplin painted doors and several glass panels above them from Salon des Fleurs at the Tuileries Palace. The palace was destroyed by fire in 1871 and its ruins were quickly destroyed. He also did the job of decorating in the Salon de l'HÃÆ' © © salon of the Palais de l'ElysÃÆ'Â © e.
Awards and awards
As a member of the AcadÃÆ'Â © nie royale de peinture et de sculpture, Chaplin exhibits his paintings in Salon de Paris, the official exhibition of members' work. He began exhibiting his paintings at the French Artist Salon in 1845 and represented there every year. These exhibitions make it one of the most famous portrait artists in France. Beginning in 1847, his work was exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy in London.
During his lifetime he received an acclamation for his artistic talents by awarding several medals: a third-class medal in 1851; second class medal in the following year; and Medal of Honor in 1865. He was declared a Chevalier de la LÃÆ' Â © gion d'Honneur in 1879, also known as the National Order of the Honorary Legion, this is a French order founded by Napoleon Bonaparte. The Order is the highest decor in France and is divided into five classes: Chevalier (Knight), Officer (Officer), Commander (Commander), Grand Officier (Grand Chancellor), and Grand Croix (Grand Cross). Chaplin was appointed Officer in 1881.
Chaplin's artistic talents are admired by famous writers, painters and critics such as ArsÃÆ'¨ne Houssaye, ÃÆ' â € ° mile Zola and ThÃÆ' Â ophile Gautier. ÃÆ' â € ° douard Manet feels Chaplin knows "the smile of a woman". It was a portrait of a young woman who gave her special success.
His works can be seen in French museums in Bordeaux, Bayonne, Bourges, Mulhouse, Paris, Reims, Rouen, Saintes, Charente-Maritime, and the Louvre Museum of Graphic Museum. Outside France, his works can be found at the Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg, at the Metropolitan Art Museum, the Harvard Museum of Art in Massachusetts and the Indianapolis Museum of Art in Indiana. Chaplin has several paintings in a general collection in England at the Bowes Museum.
One of Chaplin's paintings was sold at an auction in Paris on June 5, 1922. Described by the auctioneer as a landscape painting by Charles Chaplin, it reached an unexpected high price for an artist who was considered "falling into oblivion". Most bidders mistakenly believe it is a work of art by renowned actor Charlie Chaplin and thinks they will gain remarkable finds. The New York Times reported it stating: "The final buyer's disappointment can be imagined when it was discovered that the image was by an almost forgotten artist..."
