Label TextAchille Devéria was a French painter and lithographer known for his portraits of famous writers and artists such as Alexandre Dumas and Victor Hugo, whom he entertained in his Paris studio on Rue de l’Ouest. His portraits were referred to by Charles Baudelaire (1821 – 1867) as showing “all the morals and aesthetics of the age.” This likeness of James Fenimore Cooper was likely done when the family lived in Paris between 1826 and 1833.
