Ludovic René Alleaume (born March 24, 1859 in Angers , † January 14, 1941 in Paris ) was a French painter, wood cutter, lithographer and glass painter.
Ludovic Alleaume was one of nine children of Auguste Symphorien Alleaume (1821–1895) and Rose b. Hodée (1827–1909) born. He began his training at the Angers Art School with Eugène Brunclair . He then studied at the École des beaux-arts in Paris with Ernest Hébert and Luc-Olivier Merson .
From 1883 to 1938 he showed his works at the Salon des Artistes Français . He spent two months in Palestine in 1888 , returned there for a year in 1890, and his studies in and around Jerusalem resulted in a series of orientalist images. In Paris he exhibited his work from 1894 at the Société des Peintres-Lithographes. In 1927 he became a Knight of the Legion of Honor . In 1934 he was elected vice-president of the Société des Artistes Français . He also provided illustrations for Le Monde illustré , the Revue de Bretagne and the Revue de l'Anjou .
His brother Auguste Alleaume (1854–1940) ran a glass painting workshop in Laval (Mayenne) . Ludovic designed templates for him for stained glass windows in the St. Nicholas Church in Craon and also for churches in Laval and other places in the Mayenne department , in Bourgon , Chailland , Cuillé , Désertines , Fougères , Larchamp as well as in Saint-Cloud and Saint -Germain-en-Laye .
The artist's work was extremely diverse. Some of his pictures show precise contours, others are blurred in the fog.
