Jean-Eugène Buland - Academic Nude Painting | École des Beaux-Arts de Paris - Video

Jean-Eugène Buland (1852-1926) studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris in the early 1870s under Professor Alexandre Cabanel. He was awarded second place in the Grand Prix de Rome in two consecutive years, in 1878 and 1879, which allowed him to stay at the Villa Medici for five years. After this period, he returned to Paris and joined the Naturalist movement with Jules Bastien-Lepage. His participation in the Salon led to several awards: an honourable mention in 1879, a third place medal in 1884, followed by a second place medal in 1887. At the Paris World's Fair in 1889, he was honoured with a silver medal. In 1894, he was awarded the Legion of Honour.

This oil painting belongs to the Paris School of Fine Arts. It was painted from the life model when Buland was in his early twenties - as it was usual back then.
