John Pradier (1836-1912).
His real name: Jean-Jacques Pradier, known as John
Born on May 21, 1836, the son of the great sculptor James Pradier (1790-1852) and Louise d'Arce (1814-1885).
He grew up among artists: his father was one of the most famous sculptors in Paris, and a friend of Victor Hugo, Musset, and Flaubert.
A painter, unlike his father, who was a sculptor.
He is often classified as an Orientalist painter, a very fashionable style at the time.
He remained very close to Gustave Flaubert throughout his life.
After his father died in 1852, he and his mother continued to visit and correspond with Flaubert until the late 1870s. When Flaubert died in 1880, John, deeply affected, carefully kept the articles published about him.
He was also friends with the painter Félix-Henri Giacomotti.
Marriage: on May 21, 1867, in Metz, to Lina Ackermann. He had asked Flaubert to be his witness.
