William-Adolphe Bouguereau

Go To

  • Popularity Polynomial: During his lifetime Bouguereau was considered one of the finest painters of his generation and a master of the salon art style. After the 1920s however he fell into disrepute as old fashioned and tacky. He experienced vindication starting in the 1980s and is now appreciated for his mastery of figure painting.
