Biography:
Born in Switzerland, Jacques-Laurent Agasse moved to England in 1800. He studied veterinary science in Paris before devoting his life to art. However, his initial interest carried over and he mostly painted animals. Probably due to his difficult personality, the success that Agasse acquired in England had diminished by his death in 1849. He died penniless and practically forgotten.
