Alfred Henri Bramtot (1852-1894)
[Alfred Bramtot]
Pupil of:   W.A. Bouguereau

Alfred Henri Bramtot was born in Paris, and is a pupil of W.A. Bouguereau. That he was a diligent and progressive pupil is evidenced by the fact that he took the Prix de Rome for painting in 1879, and that he has since become one of the most notable painters of the figure of whom France has just cause to boast. History and religious motives occupy his chief attention, but he has painted many beuatiful genre pictures of scenes of country life around his summer villa. "Bashful Love" won him his first Salon medal, in 1879, the same year that he gained the Roman prize. The scene is laid at one of those public wells common in France. The servant from a neighboring country-house has come to get water from the spring, and her sweetheart, who has been working in the garden, takes advantage of the opportunity to press him suit, while she listens modestly to his arguments.
