Paul Prosper TILLIER
Le Boupère (Vendée), 1834 - Paris, 1915
Oil on canvas
46 x 29 cm (53 x 36 cm with frame)
Signed lower right "Paul Tillier".

A native of the Vendée region, Paul Tillier moved to Paris in the 1850s and from 1855 studied in the studio of academic painter Léon Cogniet, who was appointed professor of painting at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts de Paris in 1851. He painted mainly portraits and allegorical and mythological subjects, which he exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français in Paris almost every year between 1863 and 1882. In 1865, he founded the artistic and literary circle on rue Volney.
At the 1867 Salon, the famous art critic Louis Auvray wrote of him: "M. Tillier is a colorist like we like them; his color has warmth; transparency; nothing heavy, nothing thick; it's the blood circulating beneath the epidermis, it's light with its golden rays and its thousand reflections. Last year, we reproached his figures for overall flaws that no longer exist in the painting he is exhibiting: Achilles and Thetis. He is right to take drawing as seriously as color.
Our painting is delicate and well drawn. It depicts a young girl with red hair and green eyes, wearing a bolero. A portrait that exudes gaiety!
