Michallon, Achille-Etna (1796–1822). French landscape painter, the first artist to win the
Prix de Rome in the historical landscape category that was established in 1817. He was a pupil of
J.-L. David and
Valenciennes and in his turn taught
Corot, who was influenced by his severe compositions and cool colour harmonies. His early death was caused by pneumonia.
