Salon of 1833

Portrait of Monsieur Bertin by Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres

The Salon of 1833 was an art exhibition held at the Louvre in Paris which opened on the 1 March 1833.[1] It was held during the July Monarchy of Louis Philippe I and the first Salon to be staged since the failed Paris Uprising of 1832 against his rule. The critic Heinrich Heine, reviewing the Salon, observed that Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres was the dominant figure of the Salon. "Like Louis-Philippe in politics, M. Ingres was this year the king in art: as the former reigned at the Tuileries, he reigned at the Louvre".[2] Eugene Delacroix who had enjoyed success at the Salon of 1831 with Liberty Leading the People, was away in Morocco in 1832 and short of time he submitted a few watercolours and portraits rather than the history paintings he had become known for.[3]

Amongst the works on display was The Nation Is in Danger, a large patriotic painting commissioned by Louis Philippe I from Auguste-Hyacinthe Debay of which only a fragment now survives.[4] Joseph-Désiré Court exhibited his history painting Boissy d'Anglas at the National Convention.[5] [6] Charles Durupt submitted his Henry III watching the Assassination of the Duke of Guise.[7] Horace Vernet showed paintings he had produced while serving as French Academy in Rome including the Portrait of the Marchesa Cunegonda Misciattelli[8] and the history painting Raphael at the Vatican.[9] Théodore Rousseau submitted an landscape painting View near Granville.[10] Leopold Boilly entered a genre painting A Carnival Scene featuring a crowd scene of Paris.

From 1833 onwards the Salon, which had previously been roughly biannual, was held annually beginning with the Salon of 1834.
