Henri Jean- Baptiste Victoire Fradelle

Bio

Fradelle studied in Paris with Suvée and then in Italy. He settled in London in 1816 and exhibited there, at the Royal Academy and the British Institution, until 1855. During the ’30s he lived in Paris and exhibited at the Salon, where he won a third class medal in 1834. He specialized in subjects from British history, particularly as interpreted through the writings of Walter Scott, and his pictures, many of which were engraved, helped spread the interest in Scott and historical themes from England to France.
