Trained as a landscapist, Paul Delaroche switched to figure painting in 1817 after the failure of his work. He began to study under Gros and exhibit at the Paris Salon beginning in the 1820’s. Delaroche’s historical subjects were painted in a combination of romantic and classical styles. His reputation plummeted after his death, but received a revival in more recent years.
