Description |
Philibert Beaugureau, a French-born artist and administrator of a bilingual school for boys, was probably the Beaugureau who
drew portraits for P. S. Duval in 1845. His paintings were also displayed at an exhibition at the Maryland Historical Society
in 1848 and auctioned by the Philadelphia auction firm M. Thomas & Sons in 1858.

Emigrating from Passy, France, Beaugureau arrived with his family in Philadelphia in 1843. By 1847, he lived at 193 South
Ninth Street with wife Solange (b. ca. 1804) and children Philip (b. ca. 1830), the Cincinnati portrait artist and drawing
master; Cornelia (b. ca. 1824); and Adrian (1828-1908), an artist and teacher at Oxford Female College.

He and his son Philip, i.e., Philibert Jr., are often confused. |
