French painter (1845–1924)
Biography
His father was the playwright Eugène Cormon. His mother was Charlotte Furais, the actress.[2]
At an early age he attracted attention for the perceived sensationalism in his art, although for a time his powerful brush dwelled with particular delight on scenes of bloodshed, such as the Murder in the Seraglio (1868) and the Death of Ravana, King of Lanka at the Toulouse Museum. The Musée d'Orsay has his Cain fleeing before Jehovah's Curse; and for the Mairie of the fourth arrondissement of Paris he executed in grisaille a series of panels: Birth, Death, Marriage, War, etc. A Chiefs Funeral, and a series of large paintings for the Museum of natural history in Paris with themes from the Stone Age, occupied him for several years. He was appointed to the Legion of Honor in 1880. Subsequently he also devoted himself to portraiture.
Being well-accepted at the annual Salon, he also ran an art school, the Atelier Cormon in the 1880s where he tried to guide his students to create paintings which would be accepted by the Salon's jury. Among his students with whom he was unsuccessful on this point were, for instance: Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Louis Anquetin, Eugène Boch, Paul Tampier, Émile Bernard and Vincent van Gogh. Other students included Alphonse Osbert, Marius Borgeaud, Theodor Pallady, Chaïm Soutine and the Australian painter John Russell.
Despite his moment of glory as a Beaux-Arts professor he was almost forgotten by 1924 when he was run over by a taxi outside his studio, and is barely remembered today save as the teacher of pupils more illustrious than himself.[3]

Fernand Cormon (París, 24 de diciembre de 1845 - 20 de marzo de 1924), también conocido como Fernand-Anne Piestre,[1] fue un pintor francés. Fue alumno de Alexandre Cabanel, Eugène Fromentin y Jean-François Portaels, y uno de los principales pintores de temas históricos de la Francia de finales del siglo XIX. Atrajo a una edad muy temprana la atención de la crítica por el sensacionalismo de su arte, pues por un tiempo su poderoso pincel se detuvo con especial placer en escenas de derramamiento de sangre de estilo orientalista, como el Asesinato en el Serrallo (1868) y La muerte de Ravara, Rey de Lanka, ambas en el Museo de Toulouse. Su obra más conocida, Caín huyendo de la maldición de Jehová (1880), inspirada en La Légende des siècles de Victor Hugo, se conserva en el Musée d'Orsay.[2] Trabajó varios años en la alcaldía del cuarto distrito de París, donde compuso, en grisalla, una serie de paneles: nacimiento, defunción, matrimonio, guerra, un funeral e imágenes ambientadas en la Edad de Piedra. Posteriormente también se dedicó al retrato.[3]
