[email protected]
Luc-Olivier Merson (21 May 1846-13 November 1920) was a French academic painter and illustrator also known for his postage stamp and currency designs.
Born Nicolas Luc-Olivier Merson in Paris, France, he grew up in an artistic household, the son of Charles-Olivier Merson, a painter and art critic. He studied under Gustave Chassevent at the École de Dessin and then Isidore Pils at the École des Beaux-Arts. Merson had his first work exhibited at the Paris Salon in 1866 and three years later was awarded the Prix de Rome. During the five years spent working in Italy, he concentrated on religious and historical subjects for his art.
Back in France, in 1875 he won the first-prize medal at the exhibition by the Société des artistes français. Notre-Dame de Paris, one of Merson's best-known paintings, was created in 1881 as a result of the huge popularity of the Victor Hugo novel of the same name. With its mystical Gothic imagery, its style reflects the influence of the then evolving Symbolist movement.
Merson did major decorative commissions for such institutions as the Palais de Justice, the Louis Pasteur Museum, and the mosaic in the chancel vault in the Basilica of the Sacré Cœur. He also did the artwork for stained-glass windows, an example of which can be found in the Church of the Holy Trinity Rittenhouse Square in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. His profile was raised considerably after being awarded a gold medal for his painting at the 1889 Exposition Universelle, and in 1892 he was elected to the Académie des beaux-arts.
Merson was one of the first artists to buy photographs from Eugène Atget.
By 1900 Merson was designing postage stamps for the French post and the Monaco post.He was teaching at the Académie Vitti in 1903. By 1908 he had been contracted by the Bank of France to create a number of designs for some of the country's banknotes. Between 1906 and 1911 he taught at the École des Beaux-Arts, with students such as Clément Serveau, who would also eventually design stamps and banknotes himself. In recognition of his contribution to French culture, Merson was awarded the Legion of Honor. Also during this period, it is reported that Merson had under his tutelage the French painter Henri Alphonse Barnoin.
Merson died in Paris in 1920, his work largely forgotten as a result of the overwhelming popularity of the avant-garde art forms as seen in the works of the Impressionists and other artistic movements. Named as a Knight of the Legion of Honor during his life, he was elevated to the level of Commander posthumously.
Among Merson's pupils were the American painter Claire Shuttleworth and the Swiss printmaker Martha Cunz.
呂克-奧利維爾·默森 Luc-Olivier Merson（1846年5月21日至1920年11月21日）是法國學術畫家和插圖畫家，也因其郵票和貨幣設計而聞名。
他出生於法國巴黎的Nicolas Luc-Olivier Merson，他在一個藝術家庭長大，是畫家和藝術評論家Charles-Olivier Merson的兒子。他在ÉcoledeDessin的Gustave Chassevent學習，然後在ÉcoledesBeaux-Arts學習Isidore Pils。 Merson於1866年在巴黎沙龍展出了他的第一部作品，三年後獲得了羅馬大獎。在意大利工作的五年間，他專注於藝術的宗教和歷史題材。
回到法國，他於1875年在法國藝術家協會（Sociétédesartistesfrançais）的展覽中獲得一等獎。巴黎圣母院是梅森最著名的畫作之一，由於同名維克多·雨果小說的巨大受歡迎而於1881年創作。憑藉其神秘的哥特式圖像，其風格反映了當時不斷發展的象徵主義運動的影響。
默森為司法宮（Palais de Justice），路易斯巴斯德博物館（Louis Pasteur Museum）以及聖心大教堂（SacréCœur）的聖壇中的鑲嵌物等大型裝飾委員會做了大量裝飾委員會。他還為彩色玻璃窗做了藝術品，其中一個例子可以在賓夕法尼亞州費城的聖三一里滕豪斯廣場教堂找到。在1889年世界博覽會上獲得金獎後，他的形像大大提高，並於1892年被選入藝術學院。
Merson是第一批從EugèneAtget購買照片的藝術家之一。
到1900年，Merson正在為法國郵政和摩納哥郵政設計郵票。他於1903年在AcadémieVitti任教。到1908年，他與法國銀行簽訂了合同，為該國的部分鈔票設計了一些設計。 1906年至1911年間，他在ÉcoledesBeaux-Arts與ClémentServeau等學生一同教學，他們最終也將自己設計郵票和紙幣。為了表彰他對法國文化的貢獻，Merson被授予榮譽軍團。同樣在此期間，據報導，Merson在他的監護下是法國畫家Henri Alphonse Barnoin。
默森於1920年在巴黎去世，他的作品在很大程度上被遺忘，因為印象派和其他藝術運動的作品中所見的前衛藝術形式勢不可擋。在他的一生中被命名為榮譽軍團的騎士，他被追悼到追悼者的級別。
在默森的學生中有美國畫家Claire Shuttleworth和瑞士版畫家Martha Cunz。
