Biography
Hippolyte de la Roche, known as Paul Delaroche, born July 17, 1797 in Paris where he died November 4, 1856, was a French painter and sculptor.
Coming from a wealthy family, his father is an expert in paintings. In 1843 he married a daughter of Horace Vernet, whose premature death darkened his
last years. Paul Delaroche was a pupil of Louis Étienne Watelet then of Antoine-Jean Gros. He exhibited for the first time at the Salon of 1822 and caught the attention of Géricault.
He only began to be noticed at the Salon of 1824, where Saint Vincent de Paul preaching for the foundlings and Joan of Arc in her prison were exhibited. He is best known for being the initiator of the "historical anecdote", a genre with a documentary vocation and sensitivity
highly successful drama. If Paul Delaroche is one of the most famous masters of his time, it is largely due to the fact
that the genre of which he has made a specialty is perfectly suited to the ideal of the artistic movement of the "golden mean" of the Monarchy of
July. He made the sculptures found on the facades of the Hôtel de Ville in Paris
