Charles Joshua Chaplin was a French painter and printmaker who painted both landscapes and portraits. He worked in techniques such as pastels, 光刻, watercolor, chalk, oil painting and etching. He was best known for his elegant portraits of young women.
Charles Joshua Chaplin was born on 8 六月 1825 in Les Andelys, Eure, 法国. 他的母亲, Olympia Adelle Moisy, was French, whereas his father, John Chaplin, was an art broker from England. Charles Chaplin spent his whole life in France, becoming a naturalized citizen in 1886.
He studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris from 1840, and he took private lessons in the studio of Michel Martin Drolling, whose apprentices included Paul Baudry, Jules Breton and Jean-Jacques Henner. Later he also taught at the École des Beaux-Arts.
在 1845, he entered the Paris Salon, the official art exhibition of the Académie des Beaux-Arts, as a portrait and landscape painter with the painting Portrait of the Artist’s Mother. Chaplin conducted art classes specifically for women at his studio, including Marie Joséphine Nicolas.
The American artist Mary Cassatt, the French artist Louise Abbéma and the English artist Louise Jopling were among Chaplin’s students. His son Arthur Chaplin was also a painter. Chaplin died on 30 一月 1891 在, aged 65, Paris as a wealthy man and is buried in the Père Lachaise Cemetery.
Chaplin made his debut at the Salon with portraits, but he also painted landscapes, particularly the countryside of Auvergne. His early works, 从 1848 到 1851, were painted in a manner characterized by an interest in realism, a style established in the French Second Republic, that had the motto Liberté, égalité, fraternité, and was ruled for three years by the republican government of France from the 1848 Revolution until the 1851 coup by Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte.
Realism was an artistic movement that began in France in the 1850s, after the 1848 Revolution.[5] From the late 18th century Romanticism dominated French art and literature but was spurned by Realists, who revolted against the display of the emotions of the Romantic movement, seeking to depict real and characteristic contemporary individuals and situations with truth and accuracy.
Chaplin painted many works in his early days, including floral studies that were displayed at the Salon de las Flores. 之后, in the late 1850s, he abandoned naturalism, his earlier style, exchanging it for a more graceful, elegant and supple technique that brought him a certain notoriety in France during his time as a portrait painter; as such he embraced the idyllic and voluptuous and fashionable style of the prominent French painter, 弗朗索瓦·布歇 (1703–1770).
He also embraced the tradition of the great English portraitists. He developed his very own style of painting but was inspired by the British painters Joshua Reynolds and Thomas Gainsborough. He used to engrave the works of the Dutch artist Pieter Paul Rubens and gained further influence from his work.
