約翰·詹姆斯·沙隆
旅英瑞士多面畫家
約翰·詹姆斯·查隆（皇家藝術學院院士）是一位活躍於英國的瑞士畫家。他的創作題材廣泛，涵蓋風景畫、海景畫、動物畫以及人物畫。 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，他突發癱瘓，在經歷漫長而痛苦的病痛後，於1854年在肯辛頓去世。他安葬於海格特公墓。
