Biography: Francois-Xavier Fabre studied at the Montpellier’s art academy before joining the Paris studio of Jacques-Louis David. He won the Prix de Rome in 1787 and remained in Italy because of the French Revolution. Fabre settled in Florence in 1793 and received the patronage of Italian aristocrats. He was a member of the Florentine Academy and an art teacher, collector, and dealer. When the trends began to change, Fabre dropped history painting and focused on the more popular portraiture, landscape, and printmaking. In 1824, Fabre’s companion, the countess of Albany, died and left him her fortune. He returned to France and founded an art school in his hometown of Montpellier.
