HENRI SIEURAC (Paris, 1823 Paris, 1863)
HENRI SIEURAC (Paris, 1823 Paris, 1863)
THE SECRET Painting on canvas
79 x 64 cm
Dressed in a French dress with shimmering green silk satin stripes, a young woman lends her ear to the confidences of a young man. A fleeting and intimate moment, this 19th century genre scene faithfully retranscribes the libertine atmosphere at the time of Crébillon fils and
Choderlos de Laclos. A pupil of Paul Delaroche (1797- 1856), Henri Sieurac exhibited at the Salon between 1848 and 1863.
Some of his works are today in the collections of national museums (Aix, Dijon, Toulouse...). Automatically translated by DeepL. To see the original version, click here.
