José Ferraz de Almeida Júnior
José Ferraz de Almeida Júnior (8 May 1850, Itu - 13 November 1899, Piracicaba), commonly known as Almeida Júnior, was a Brazilian artist and designer; one of the first there to paint in the Realistic tradition of Gustave Courbet and Jean-François Millet. The "Dia do Artista Plástico" (Day of Fine Artists in Brazil) is celebrated on his birthday.
==Biography==
His art career began while he was working as a bell-ringer at the church of "Our Lady of Candelária" and created some small works on religious themes. The head priest there was sufficiently impressed to hold a fundraiser, so Júnior could go to Rio de Janeiro and take formal art lessons.〔(Brief biography ) @ Pitoresco.〕
In 1869, he enrolled at the Academia Imperial de Belas Artes, where he studied with Victor Meirelles and Pedro Américo. His simple, country speech and manners reportedly were the source of much interest〔 and, one might suppose, amusement. After graduating, he chose not to compete for a travel award to Europe, returning instead to Itu, and setting up a studio.〔(Brief biography ) @ the Enciclopédia Itaú Cultural.〕
He was apparently destined to see Europe, however. In 1876, during a tour of the São Paulo region, Emperor Pedro II saw Júnior's work, was impressed, and personally offered his financial support.〔 Later that year, a Royal Decree awarded Júnior 300 Francs per month for the purpose of studying in Paris. He soon settled in Montmartre and enrolled at the École des Beaux-Arts, becoming one of the many students of Alexandre Cabanel. While there, he participated in four of the Salons.
