According to a recent exhibition at the Musée d’Orsay, he was “one of the most famous French painters of his time”. He had a universal glory but also irreconcilable enemies because as an artist of tradition, he resolutely fought against the impressionists! Nowadays, all agree on the merits of each and every one, and Gérôme definitely embodies the perfection of stroke that museums all over the world celebrate.
