美国画家。是19世纪美国最杰出的艺术
家。出生在费城,1866—1870年在欧洲
接受艺术教育。在巴黎师从席罗姆*,并
从西班牙大师委拉斯贵支*、里贝拉*那
里获益良多。1876年开始在费城美术学
院教学,坚持使用人体模特儿进行创
作。对写实主义的热情使他专心研究人
体解剖和高速摄影,但是这些科学的成
就对他不是最根本的。肖像深入刻画人
物的个性和内在真实,戏剧性的光线处
理让人想起伦勃朗的艺术。最著名的作
品是《格罗斯的临床教学》,因对外科手
术的直观表现而引起了很大的争议。如
果不是父亲的财政支持,他恐怕不能坚
持自己的见解,但是不得不长期处在孤
独的创作状态,直到去世前才被看作为
大师。对美国人心灵生活的深入刻画体
现在后来的垃圾箱画派和其他写实画家
中。同时还是一个杰出的摄影家和雕塑
家。妻子苏珊娜·埃金斯是一位画家、摄
影家和钢琴家。

Biographical InformationThe final story of Thomas Eakins has not been written. Modernists have celebrated him for his departure from French academic traditions, and his artwork has had considerable influence over succeeding modernist schools of art such as “The Eight.” But it is very much a stretch to see him as a modernist, as everything about his subject and technique cries out traditional, classical, and universal human themes. Thus Eakins also finds an even more avid audience among modern-day classical artists, who greatly admire his knowledge of anatomy and perspective and the power of his compositions and themes.
Thomas Eakins was born in Philadelphia, where he would spend most of his life. From 1866-70, he traveled to Paris to study with French masters. He gained admission to the prestigious École des Beaux-Arts and entered Jean-Léon Gérôme’s atelier on October 29, 1866. He enjoyed Gérôme’s meticulous drawing and exhaustive research for his oriental and historical paintings. As his training progress
