Théodore-Pierre Nicolas MAILLOT (Paris 1826-1888) Military flute player Pen and brown ink over black pencil lines Signed lower right Size: 31 x 21 cm. Freckles Provenance: Artist's family, then by descent Expert : Cabinet DE BAYSER A pupil of Drolling and Picot, Maillot won 2nd prize in the Rome competition in 1850, then the Grand Prix in 1854. After his stay in Rome, he exhibited portraits and religious compositions at the Salon. He decorated the Saint-Marcel chapel at Notre-Dame de Paris (towards the end of the 1860s?). His success encouraged Philippe de Chennevières to entrust him with one of the decorations for Sainte Geneviève. In 1876, he presented at the Salon one of his designs for the Sainte-Geneviève décor, Procession de la châsse de sainte Geneviève à Paris. The four large vertical panels, surmounted by four coffers with gilded backgrounds (as in Puvis de Chavannes' décor), are dedicated to the miracles of Saint Geneviève: the two panels on the left depict the Procession of Saint Geneviève's shrine in Paris, organized on January 12, 1496 to stop the rains and floods threatening the capital; the two panels on the right illustrate the cure by the saint's relics of the "mal des ardents" that ravaged Paris in 1130. The decoration was not installed until after his death in 1888. At the same time, he was commissioned to decorate the cupola of the Grand Salon at the Hôtel de la Légion d'Honneur, a project completed in 1877. He decorated the north transept of Saint-Jean-Baptiste church in Belleville and the Sacré-Coeur chapel in Amiens cathedral.
