French Neoclassical Painter, 1767-1824 French painter. Originally named Girodet de Roussy or Roucy, he was a student of J.-L. David, and his classical training was sometimes at variance with his often eccentrically romantic expression. He won the Prix de Rome and while in Italy painted the Sleep of Endymion (1791; Louvre), a sensual and erotically ambiguous work that brought him widespread recognition. His Deluge (Louvre) demonstrates Girodet's interest in unusual color and lighting problems. Much of his work, including a series for Malmaison (Napoleon's residence), glorifies Napoleon.  Related Paintings of Girodet-Trioson, Anne-Louis :. | Self-Portrait | Mademoiselle Lange as Danae | Ossian Receiving the Ghosts of French Heroes | Die Revolte in Kairo, Detail | Ossian receiving the Ghosts of the French Heroes |
