ALBERT-PAUL-LOUIS BESNARD, PORTRAIT OF LOUIS DUCHESNE, CHARCOAL, STUMP, SIGNED AND DATED 1922
Recognised by public commissions and awarded with every official distinction, Albert Besnard was an important painter of the Third Republic. He was made Commander of the Legion d'honneur in 1905, became Director of the Villa Médicis from 1913, then Director of the Beaux-Arts de Paris from 1922; finally, in an exceptional feat for a painter, he was elected to the Académie française in 1924. When he died in 1934, he received a national tribute, captured by the first news cameras (N. Heumann, Albert Besnard, Modernités belle époque, Paris, 2016, p.27-29). It was at the Villa Médicis that he met Louis Duchesne, with whom he became friends. Taken in the year of Louis Duchesne's death in 1922, this portrait could be compared with a photograph, showing him posing for a bust sculpted by Philippe Besnard, son of Albert Besnard (fig. 1).
