Portrait of Charles-Marie Bouton

About

Charles Marie Bouton was a French painter. A student of Jacques-Louis David, Jean-Victor Bertin and the first French panorama painter Pierre Prévost, he concentrated mostly on the perspective and the art of distributing light and was thus led to the invention of the Diorama, which he shares the honor with Jacques Daguerre.
