Henri Duvieux was born in 1855 in Paris.
He entered his artistic studies as a student of Marilhat and after his debut at
the Paris Salon in 1880 he continued to depict representations of Venice and
Constantinople throughout his career.
Duvieux was influenced by the considerable
nineteenth-century interest in Orientalism but he chose to concentrate his
interest on landscapes and architecture and the effect of differing conditions
of light in relation to them. He followed up his 1880 Salon debut by showing
Campement Arabe (Arab Encampment) in 1882, which also marked his final
appearance at the Salon. His paintings proved popular, striking a note with the
considerable audience to whom this type of imagery appealed, acting as a
memento of their travels. More
