(March 25, 1783 - January 19, 1855), French painter, was born at Toulon, of poor parents. As a young man, he learned his father's trade of locksmithing, whilst at the same time he followed the classes of the free school of art. Having sold some copies to a local amateur, Guerin started for Paris, where he came under the notice of Vincent, whose counsels were of material service. In 1810 Guerin made his first appearance at the Salon with some portraits, which had a certain success. In 1812 he exhibited "Cain after the murder of Abel" (formerly in Luxembourg), and, on the return of the Bourbons, was much employed in works of restoration and decoration at Versailles.   Related Paintings of Jean-Baptiste Paulin Guerin :. | Portrait of Max jacob (mk39) | De waterval van de Mahoura, Cauterets. | Portrait of Prinsesse Louise Auguste of Denmark | County Kerry | Arab or Arabic people and life.
