INTERESTING FACTS:
Courbet led the Realist movement in 19th-century French painting.
Courbet believed artists were incapable of reproducing the past or future in their work. Therefore, he preferred to paint from his own experience.
His painting, 'After Dinner at Ornans' earned him a gold medal at the Salon in 1849.
Courbet painted everyday people and places to reveal the French people as a political entity.
His painting, 'Stone-Breakers' was destroyed in the British bombing of Dresden in 1945.
