Charles Clément Balvay
Edit ProfileEducation
He was a pupil of J. B. Le Prince and Jean George Wille.
Career
In 1774 he was decorated by the Academy for his The Little Turk. His reputation was enhanced by his Portrait of the Count of SénacSenac, commissioned by Valenciennes. His Portrait of Louis XVI, after a painting by Callot, is considered a major work. Three engravings that became classics are L'Enlevement de Déjanire ("The Rape of Deianira") after Guido Reni, The Education of Achilles after J. B. Regnault, and The Laocoön Group after the antique sculpture. Louis XVI lodged Bervic at the Louvre. He died in Paris on March 23, 1822.
