His father, John T. Hudson, was a British ship chandler and ironmonger. His mother, Suzanne Desiree Marcos, was a free New Orleans quadroon (of Caucasian and African origins). Before studying painting, Julien Hudson briefly was a tailor’s apprentice in the mid-1820s. He then studied with Antoine Meucci, an itinerant miniaturist painter, between 1826 and 1827. Hudson’s learning then continued in Paris with well-known artist Alexandre Abel de Pujol (after 1827).〔("In Search of Julien Hudson: Free Artist of Color in Pre–Civil War New Orleans". ) The Historic New Orleans Collection.〕 After returning to New Orleans, Hudson opened his own studio on Bienville Street in 1831. During this time, many free men of color became professional artists, musicians or writers. Julien Hudson died in 1844 in New Orleans. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Julien Hudson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
