Julien Hudson<\/a>, born in 1811 in New Orleans<\/a>, was the son of a property-owning free woman of color<\/a> and a white English merchant, ironmonger<\/a>, and ship chandler<\/a>. Hudson began painting in the mid-1820s, training first in New Orleans and later in Paris<\/a>. Little is known about his personal life, outside of scattered details found in a handful of public documents and a pair of early-twentieth-century reminiscences by former student George Coulon<\/a> and prominent Creole of color<\/a> Rodolphe Desdunes<\/a>. This carefully researched volume is the most thorough examination to date of Julien Hudson and his world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
