JAMES See also:JOSEPH JACQUES (1836-1902) , See also:French painter, was See also:born at See also:Nantes on the 15th of See also:October 1836. He studied at the Ecole See also:des See also:Beaux Arts in See also:Paris under See also:Ingres, See also:Flandrin and Lamothe, and exhibited in the See also:Salon for the first 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. O.

time at the See also:age of twenty-three. In 1861 he showed "The See also:- MEETING (from " to meet," to come together, assemble, 0. Eng. metals ; cf.

Meeting of See also:Faust and See also:Marguerite, " which was See also:purchased by the See also:state for the Luxembourg See also:Gallery. His first characteristic See also:period made him a painter of the charms of See also:women. Demimondaine would be more accurate as a description of the See also:series of studies which he called La Remme a Paris. He fought
in the Franco-See also:German See also:War, and, falling under suspicion as a Communist, See also:left Paris for See also:London. Here he studied See also:etching with See also:Sir See also:Seymour See also:Haden, See also:drew caricatures for Vanity See also:Fair, and painted portraits as well as genre subjects. It was many years before he turned to the See also:chief labour of his career—the See also:production of a series of 700 See also:water-See also:colour drawings to illustrate the See also:life of See also:Christ and the Old Testament. Some sudden See also:shock or bereavement was said to have turned his thoughts from ideals of the cafe and the See also:boulevard into a more serious channel. He disappeared from Paris, whither he had returned after a stay of some years in See also:England, and went to See also:Palestine. In 1895 the series of 350 drawings of incidents in the life of Christ was exhibited in Paris, and the following See also:year found them on show in London. They were then published by the See also:firm of See also:Lemercier in Paris, who had paid him 1,1oo,000 francs for them. After this he turned to the scenes of the Old Testament, upon which he was still engaged at the See also:abbey of Buillon, in the See also:department of See also:Doubs, See also:France, when he died on the 8th of See also:August 1902. The merits of Tissot's See also:Bible illustrations See also:lay rather in the care with which he studied the details of scenery than in any quality of religious emotion. He seemed to aim, above all, at accuracy, and, in his figures, at a vivid See also:realism, which was far removed from the conventional treatment of sacred types.
