See also:DUPRE, JULES (1812-1889) , See also:French painter, was one of the See also:chief members of the See also:Barbizon See also:group of romantic landscape painters. If See also:Corot stands for the lyric and See also:Rousseau for the epic aspect of the See also:poetry of nature, Dupre is the exponent of her tragic and dramatic aspects. He was the son of a See also:porcelain manufacturer, and started his career in his See also:father's See also:works, whence he went to his See also:uncle's See also:china factory at Sevres.. After studying for some See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf.

time under Diebold, a painter of See also:clock faces, he had to pass through a See also:short See also:period of privation, until he attracted the See also:attention of a wealthy See also:patron, who came to his studio and bought all the studies on the walls at the See also:price demanded by the artist—2o francs apiece. Dupre exhibited first at the See also:Salon in 1831, and three years later was awarded a second-class See also:medal. In the same See also:year he came to See also:England, where he was deeply impressed by the See also:genius of See also:- CONSTABLE (0. Fr. connestable, Fr. connetable, Med.

Constable. From him he learnt how to See also:express See also:movement in nature; and the See also:district of See also:Southampton and See also:Plymouth, with its wide, unbroken expanses of See also:water, See also:sky and ground, gave him See also:good opportunities for studying the tempestuous See also:motion of See also:storm-clouds and the movement of foliage driven by the See also:wind. He received the See also:cross of the See also:Legion of See also:Honour in 1848. Dupre's See also:colour is sonorous and resonant; the subjects for which he showed marked preference are dramatic
sunset effects and stormy skies and seas. See also:Late in See also:life he changed his See also:style and gained appreciably in largeness of handling and arrived at greater simplicity in his colour harmonies. Among his chief works are the " See also:Morning " and " Evening " at the Louvre, and the See also:early " See also:Crossing the See also:Bridge " in the See also:Wallace Collection.
