Adrien Dauzats (1804-1868)
Adrien Dauzats (1804-1868)

An Orientalist painter born in Bordeaux, Adrien Dauzats travelled throughout the Middle East in 1828, accompanying Baron Taylor, whose Voyages pittoresques et romantiques dans l'ancienne France [Picturesque and romantic journeys in old France] he had already illustrated, to Egypt, the Sinai, Palestine and Syria.
He also journeyed to Spain, Morocco and Algeria, producing views of monuments and landscapes.
On his return to France in the mid-1840s, he became a neighbour of Eugène Delacroix, who made him an executor of his will. Victor Hugo, Alexandre Dumas, Prosper Mérimée and Théophile Gautier also displayed great admiration for this well-travelled and romantic painter.
