Eugène Isabey's contemporaries

Landscape with Rider on White Horse, by Jean Achille Benouville, 1846
This image is a pencil sketch on paper with a monochrome palette of graphite gray. The viewer sees various scenes without a defined horizon line. The upper section shows figures in period clothing, possibly mid-19th century women's fashion. The middle area has abstract architectural forms. In the lower right corner, a sailing ship or boat is sketched with more detail than the rest. The drawing style consists of quick, expressive strokes. The image conveys multiple narrative or compositional ideas on a single sheet.
On the Beach, Sunset, by Eugène Boudin, 1865
A work made of oil on canvas.
A work made of lithograph from two stones on off-white wove paper.
Aglaida and Boniface, by Alexandre Cabanel, c. 1857

  2. This is a drawing of a group of mythological figures in a ceremonial scene. The composition features multiple figures in various poses, centered around a symbolic gathering. The drawing is detailed, providing a classical representation of human forms, draped fabrics, and an animal. A plateau with trees is subtly depicted in the background. The figures display expressions ranging from serene to contemplative.
