James Tissot: Perbedaan antara revisi

Tahun 1885, Tissot mengalami konversi kembali ke agama Katolik, yang mendorongnya menghabiskan sisa waktunya untuk membuat ilustrasi [[Alkitab]].<!-- which led him to spend the rest of his life illustrating the Bible. Many of his artist friends were skeptical about his conversion, as it conveniently coincided with the French Catholic revival, a reaction against the secular attitude of the [[French Third Republic]]. At a time when French artists were still working in [[impressionism]], [[pointilism]], and heavy oil washes, Tissot was moving toward realism in his watercolors.--> Untuk membantu melengkapi ilustrasi Alkitabnya, Tissot pergi ke [[Timur Tengah]] pada tahun 1886, 1889, dan 1896 guna mempelajari keadaan tanah dan penduduknya. Seri ilustrasinya sejumlah 365 [[gouache]] (opaque watercolor) menunjukkan kehidupan [[Yesus]] [[Kristus]] dan menarik perhatian besar di Paris (1894–1895), London (1896) serta New York (1898–9), sebelum akhirnya dibeli oleh [[Brooklyn Museum]] pada tahun 1900.<ref>{{cite web|last=Brooklyn Museum|title=James Tissot|url=http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/exhibitions/james_tissot/|accessdate=3 May 2011}}</ref> Lukisan-lukisan itu dipublikasikan dalam edisi Prancis tahun 1896–7 dan edisi Inggris tahun 1897–8, membuat Tissot terkenal dan berada. Pada bulan Juli 1894, Tissot diberi penghargaan [[Légion d'honneur]], medal paling terhormat di [[Prancis]].<ref name=ODNB /> Tissot melewatkan tahun-tahun terakhir hidupnya bekerja melukis tokoh-tokoh [[Perjanjian Lama]] yang kemudian disimpan di [[:en:Jewish Museum (New York)|Jewish Museum]], [[New York]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Jewish Museum|title=James Tissot|url=http://www.thejewishmuseum.org/onlinecollection/collection_results.php?artistlist=1&aid=5820|access-date=2015-01-28|archive-date=2012-09-18|archive-url=https://archive.is/20120918031636/http://www.thejewishmuseum.org/onlinecollection/collection_results.php?artistlist=1&aid=5820|dead-url=yes}}</ref> Meskipun ia tidak pernah melengkapi serinya, ia sempat memamerkan 80 di antaranya di Paris pada tahun 1901 dan ukiran-ukiran setelahnya dipublikasikan paa tahun 1904.<ref name=Misfeldt />
