Description

He showed work at the Salon of Paris from 1870 to 1899, and in 1897 received an honourable mention there.

Emile Coriolan Hippolyte Guillemin made his debut in the Paris Salon of 1870. Emile Coriolan specialized in figurative works and was greatly inspired by the Middle East and its exoticism. Representations of Indian falconers, Turkish maidens and Japanese courtesans firmly established Guillemin’s reputation as an Orientalist sculptor from the mid-1870’s.
