ジョン・ジェームズ・シャロン
英国で活躍したスイス人
ジョン・ジェームズ・シャロン（RA）は、イギリスで活動したスイス人画家である。彼は風景画、海洋画、動物画、人物画など、幅広い主題を扱った。 He was born at Geneva, of an old French family who had taken refuge there after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes. He went to England when quite young, and entered the Schools of the Academy in 1796. His first picture, 'Banditti at their Repast,' appeared in 1800. In 1808, he, his brother Alfred Edward Chalon, and some friends, founded the Sketching Society, and in the same year he joined the Water-Colour Society, but in 1813 he seceded from it, and again devoted himself to painting pictures in oil for the Royal Academy. He was elected an Associate of that institution in 1827, and an Academician in 1841. 1847年、彼は麻痺の発作に襲われ、長く苦しい病の末、1854年にケンジントンで死去した。彼はハイゲート墓地に埋葬されている。
