More information
Édouard Richter (Édouard Frédéric Wilhelm Richter, 1844-1913), was born in 1844 to a Dutch mother and German father.
His extensive artistic education took him to the Hague Academy, then to Antwerp and finally to the Académie de Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he trained under the French painter Léon Bonnat.
Richter first exhibited a still-life at the Salon in Paris 1866. Between 1748 and 1890 the Salon in Paris was arguably the greatest annual or biennial art event in the Western world.
Richter received plenty of praise and accolades and was awarded the Salon
honorable mention 1866. However for the following fifty years, he submitted a range of subject matter including portraits, historical genre scenes and more specifically Orientalist subjects.
Richter's favourite motifs and visual world was completely dominated by Orientalist subjects. His visual arts and artistry demonstrate a certain studied theatricality in the gesture of the figures and the compositions, as well as an exquisite handling of the textures and colours.
