His resulting studies were interrupted by the Franco-Prussian war, during which he was taken prisoner. He had little success until the Salon of 1884 when one of his paintings received an honorable mention and gained the attention of art critic Roger Marx. With his entrance into the Parisian art world secured, Carri\u00e8re became a member of various art societies and an influential teacher at the Acad\u00e9mie de La Palette. His work is considered part of the Symbolism movement that flourished in France and Belgium at the end of the nineteenth century, fin-de-si\u00e8cle, with one critic describing the ethereal, misty quality of his work as \u201creality having the magic of dreams.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-6 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2023\/05\/1989.8.1.g.webp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"691\" height=\"900\" data-id=\"18288\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2023\/05\/1989.8.1.g-691x900.webp\" alt=\"Leonard Baskin, Thomas Eakins, n.d., wood engraving, 2 1\/4 x 1 3\/4 in., Bates College Museum of Art, Gift of John and Janet Marqusee, 1988.5.1.g\" class=\"wp-image-18288\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2023\/05\/1989.8.1.g-691x900.webp 691w, https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2023\/05\/1989.8.1.g-230x300.webp 230w, https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2023\/05\/1989.8.1.g-768x1000.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2023\/05\/1989.8.1.g-1180x1536.webp 1180w, https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2023\/05\/1989.8.1.g-482x628.jpg 482w, https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2023\/05\/1989.8.1.g.webp 1474w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 691px) 100vw, 691px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Leonard Baskin, <em>Thomas Eakins<\/em>, n.d., wood engraving, 2 1\/4 x 1 3\/4 in., Bates College Museum of Art, Gift of John and Janet Marqusee, 1988.5.1.g<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2021\/01\/blank-image-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"10\" height=\"10\" data-id=\"14895\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2021\/01\/blank-image-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14895\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2021\/01\/blank-image-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"10\" height=\"10\" data-id=\"14895\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/files\/2021\/01\/blank-image-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14895\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eug\u00e8ne Carri\u00e8re (French, 1849-1906) Trained as a commercial lithographer, Carri\u00e8re resolved to&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1626,"featured_media":0,"parent":1152,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_hide_ai_chatbot":false,"_ai_chatbot_style":"","associated_faculty":[],"_Page_Specific_Css":"","_bates_restrict_mod":false,"_dimp_site_id":"","_dimp_override_contact":false,"_table_of_contents_display":false,"_table_of_contents_location":"","_table_of_contents_disableSticky":false,"_is_featured":false,"footnotes":"","_bates_seo_meta_description":"","_bates_seo_block_robots":false,"_bates_seo_sharing_image_id":0,"_bates_seo_sharing_image_twitter_id":0,"_bates_seo_share_title":"","_bates_seo_canonical_overwrite":"","_bates_seo_twitter_template":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-18316","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/18316","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1626"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18316"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/18316\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19161,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/18316\/revisions\/19161"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1152"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/museum\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18316"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
