Hubert Robert – Tuesday 22 May 1733 Paris, France to Friday 15 April 1808 Paris, France
French Rococo Era Painter
On a few guided walks I have taken in Paris, the guides have mentioned that houses once stood on some of the bridges – The Demolition of Houses On The Notre Dame Bridge, 1786 – is evidence that such statements were true.

Last Monday’s Artist – Thomas Cowperthwait Eakins
Next Monday’s Artist – Winslow Homer
