| Louis Béroud (1852–1930) | ||||||||||
| A French painter and copyist, Béroud was born in Lyon, but his family moved to Paris when he was nine. He studied in Paris and worked with Lavraste, a decorator at the Paris Opera. Later, he became a pupil of Leon-Joseph Bonnat, and he exhibited regularly at Parisian salons from 1873 to 1930. He received several medals, including one at the 1900 Exposition Universelle. Béroud painted Paris scenes, portraits, nudes, allegorical subjects, interiors, and urban landscapes, and was a frequent visitor of the Louvre working as a copyist. He is credited with raising the alarm after noticing that the Mona Lisa had vanished in 1911. His manner is similar to that of Jean Béraud, and is best known for his Parisian subjects, where he took particular interest in representing the main monuments of Paris in his paintings. Béroud died in Paris. | ||||||||||
