Guillaume-Alphonse Harang (Cabasson)

Guillaume-Alphonse Harang, known as Cabasson (1814-1884), son of Robert and Augustine Élisabeth Harang née Recavel, Guillaume Cabasson entered the Academy of Fine Arts in Rouen, where he became a resident and could thus come to Paris to complete his studies.

He can, within the School of Fine Arts in Paris follow the courses of the sculptor Pierre-Jean David d'Angers, but especially of the painter Paul Delaroche, with whom he studies history painting. The latter made him his assistant and charged him with restoring the stained glass windows of certain churches in Rouen, including that of Saint-Patrice, in the years 1840-1843. It was again in Rouen that he obtained his first distinction, a gold medal, for his painting The Captivity of Saint-Louis, during the exhibition of Norman arts and artists in 1840 in the same city.

Delaroche, who worked on the paintings in the hemicycle of the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris until 1843, asked Cabasson to make all the drawings to be used in the design of this fresco.

He exhibited at the Salons from 1841 to 1882.

In 1878, he became a professor at the School of Decorative Arts in Paris and received the Legion of Honor.
