Biography: Child prodigy, Theodore Chasseriau entered Auguste-Dominique Ingres’s studio at the age of eleven. Before reaching seventeen, he had already won a third place medal at the Paris Salon with his early images of female nudes. Chausseriau traveled to Rome with Ingres in 1840 where he became interested in the Romantic art of Eugene Delacroix. After returning to Paris, he began decorating churches and public buildings in Italian Renaissance style. Chausseriau visited Algeria in 1846 and created drawings which later served as preparations for his Orientalist paintings. In addition, he drew graphite portraits and illustrated Shakespeare’s Othello with engravings.
