French, d. 1823
Charles Duchesne was a French artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Palace of Versailles. Charles Duchesne was born in Paris.
Charles Duchesne painted quiet scenes with clean brushwork in early 19th-century France. His 1818 oil *Still Life with Fruit and Flowers* shows a glass bowl of peaches beside a strawberry basket, balanced against a dark background. The still lifes feel crisp and orderly, part of the quiet transition between Neoclassicism and the emerging Romantic mood. Tap *Still Life with Fruit and Flowers* to step into the soft light of his studio.
