亨利-皮埃爾·皮庫

1824 - 1895 French

新希臘學院派創始人

亨利-皮埃爾·皮庫是一位法國畫家。他的創作生涯始於肖像畫和古典歷史題材,但後來轉向寓言和神話題材。 他是一位學院派畫家,也是新希臘畫派的創始人之一,與他的密友古斯塔夫·布朗熱、讓-萊昂·傑羅姆和讓-路易·阿蒙同為學院派畫家。他們都在保羅·德拉羅什的工作室學習,後來又在查爾斯·格萊爾的工作室學習。皮庫的風格明顯受到格萊爾的影響。雖然該團體的其他成員通常繪製古典和神話題材的作品,但皮庫還接受了許多教堂的大型宗教壁畫委託,包括聖羅克教堂。 His artistic debut was at the Salon in 1847. The next year he was awarded a second-class medal for his painting, Cléopâtre et Antoine sur le Cydnus. Also known as Cleopatra on the Cydnus, it is commonly regarded as Picou's masterpiece.

In 1875, the painting was exhibited in New York, and afterward found lodgment on the walls of a private art gallery in San Francisco. 皮庫在巴黎馬真塔大道擁有一間大型工作室,這為他創作宏大的壁畫提供了空間。他的聲望持續上升,並於1853年憑藉畫作《耶穌將商人逐出聖殿》(Jésus chassant les vendeurs du Temple)獲得羅馬大獎二等獎,又因1857年沙龍展出的作品再獲一枚二等勳章。自1847年首次亮相以來,他成為沙龍的常客,幾乎每年參展,直至1893年最後一次展出。他被稱為m
