Did you know? While Jean Bernard's captivating animal illustrations, particularly his cats, are admired for their realism and sensitivity, historical records about his personal life and artistic training remain scarce. This is a common occurrence for many artists of the 1800s, especially those who primarily worked in illustration, which was often considered a less prestigious art form than painting or sculpture at the time. This lack of extensive biographical information adds a layer of mystery and intrigue to his work.
