Auguste-Barthélemy Glaize (1807–1893) was a French Romantic painter of history paintings and genre paintings.

Career

He studied under the painters Achille Devéria and Eugène Devéria and taught Paul-Maurice Duthoit and his son Pierre-Paul-Léon Glaize.

He had a considerable output, though of uneven quality. He was one of the great Romantic painters, marking his career with important history paintings and cycles of monumental religious painting in several churches in Paris and the provinces. The painting conserved in the church at Quesnoy-sur-Airaines is doubtless one of his masterworks. Nevertheless, the critics of the era generally did not like his style, slightly profane in treating religious scenes, though Alfred Des Essarts praised his corpus's originality.
