PLATE I.—YOUNG GREEKS ENGAGED IN COCK FIGHTING
(In the Luxembourg Museum, Paris)
This was Gérôme's first picture. It was exhibited at the Salonof 1847, and achieved a brilliant success. Théophile Gautier, whowas a critic hard to please, bestowed upon it some enviable praise.In later years the artist found much to censure in his early work;but the public, less severely critical, admired the graceful nudity ofthe young forms and the combative ardour of the two adversaries.
