Biography:
Jules David (1808–1892)
David was a French painter and lithographer whose illustrations appeared in many fashion series particulary of Parisian fashions.
He was a pupil of Pierre Duval Le Camus. David began work in 1824, using his power of observation and facility of drawing to produce a variety of landscapes and interiors in Gothic style for publishers. During the July Monarchy (1830–1848) David also published caricatures.
Achille Deveria introduced David to the Journal des demoiselles and the Journal des jeunes personnes, for which he produced lithographs from 1839 to 1842. David’s albums were often published as a supplement to women’s magazines. He drew all the plates for the Le Moniteur de la Mode for fifty years. He was a pioneer in introducing contemporary backgrounds in his plates.
