The "Hemicycle of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts (right side)" is a monumental fresco by the French painter Paul Delaroche, completed in 1841. This work is part of a larger composition that decorates the hemicycle (semi-circular wall) of the Palais des Études at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris. The fresco is renowned for its grand scale and the intricacy of its execution, embodying the academic art tradition of the 19th century in France.

Delaroche was commissioned in 1837 to create a work that would encapsulate the essence of the Beaux-Arts (Fine Arts) and inspire the students of the school. The complete fresco, including both the right and left sides of the hemicycle, measures approximately 27 meters in width and is a homage to the great artists of the past, featuring an assembly of over seventy-five historical figures from the realms of painting, sculpture, architecture, and engraving. These figures are depicted congregating in a classical setting, symbolizing a timeless gathering of artistic genius.

The right side of the Hemicycle, specifically, continues the theme established by the left, showcasing artists from a later period and completing the narrative of artistic evolution that Delaroche aimed to portray. Among the depicted figures are prominent artists who made significant contributions to their respective fields, each carefully chosen by Delaroche for their impact on the history of art.

Delaroche's work on the Hemicycle was groundbreaking for its time, not only for its ambitious scale but also for the artist's meticulous research and attention to detail. He went to great lengths to ensure the accuracy of the costumes and settings, consulting historical documents and artworks to faithfully represent each figure. The fresco is celebrated for its vivid portrayal of the artists, each rendered with individualized features and expressions, bringing a sense of life and dynamism to the composition.

The "Hemicycle of the Ecole des Beaux-Arts (right side)" is a testament to Delaroche's mastery of fresco painting and his deep reverence for the artistic tradition. It remains a key attraction of the École des Beaux-Arts and an enduring symbol of the school's commitment to the celebration of art history and education.
