The Life and Academic Career of Aimé Morot

Born in Nancy, France, Aimé Morot was a painter and sculptor who began his artistic journey at the age of twelve. His early studies in drawing, painting, and gravure printing took place at the l'Ecole Municipal de Dessin et de Peinture de Nancy.

Despite leaving the formal academy after receiving two corrections from Cabanel, Morot pursued independent study in the Jardin des Plantes, where he focused on observing and portraying animals. In 1873, he won the Grand Prix de Rome with his work Babylonian Captivity (Super Flumina Babylonis), which is held in the collection of the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. This achievement allowed him to reside at the Villa Medici in Rome.
