Pierre Louis Henri Grevedon
Pierre Louis Henri Grevedon is a Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at George Enescu National Museum.
Grevedon was a Parisian portraitist who kept a tiny mirror on his easel so he could sneak glances at his own face between brushstrokes, useful when the sitter fidgeted. He once drew Beethoven with a pencil so light it looked like the composer’s own shadow had stepped off the page. See it for yourself in Portretul lui Ludwig van Beethoven; the soft hatching makes the music still hang in the air.
