SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
Joseph Navlet (1821–1889) was a French painter from Châlons-sur-Marne. He first trained with his father, a drawing teacher, before studying under Abel de Pujol at the École des beaux-arts in Paris. His brothers Victor and Gustave were also artists. Specialising in history painting, he exhibited regularly at the Salon from 1848. His subjects range across antiquity, the Middle Ages and the French Revolution, as illustrated by La Poétesse Sapho and Capture de Jeanne d’Arc sous les murs de Compiègne. The Musée Carnavalet holds works relating to Parisian history, while the Musée de la Révolution française in Vizille owns Charlotte Corday achetant le couteau, among other paintings.
