Louis-Philippe commissions paintings from him with military subjects for the museum of the history of France created at the castle of Versailles.<\/p>\n<p>Eug\u00e8ne Lami then turns to genre scenes, painting the sophisticated life of the court and the bourgeoisie. He focuses on watercolor, which becomes his favorite art for the rest of his life.<\/p>\n<p>Alors qu\u2019il n\u2019est plus tout jeune, il s&#8217;int\u00e9resse de plus en plus aux sc\u00e8nes d&#8217;histoire. \u00c0 soixante-dix-neuf ans, il fonde la Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 des aquarellistes fran\u00e7ais. Il continue \u00e0 peindre jusqu&#8217;\u00e0 sa mort, \u00e0 l&#8217;\u00e2ge de quatre-vingt-dix ans.<\/p>\n<p>In 1844, Henri d&#8217;Orl\u00e9ans, Duke of Aumale, calls on him for the layout of his private apartments at the Chantilly Castle. He is also in charge of decorating the castle of Ferri\u00e8res, completed in 1859, and the castle of Rothschild in Boulogne-Billancourt, completed in 1861 for Baron James de Rothschild.<\/p>\n<p>When he is no longer in the first flush of youth, he becomes increasingly interested in scenes of the history. At the age of seventy-nine, he founds the Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 des aquarellistes fran\u00e7ais. He continues to paint until his death, at the age of ninety.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eug\u00e8ne Louis Lami (January 12, 1800 &#8211; December 19, 1890) is an English painter, watercolorist, illustrator, lithographer and decorator.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[9],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=179"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":181,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179\/revisions\/181"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=179"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=179"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sidranne-painter.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=179"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
