Julien Hudson

American artist, active 1830-1840

Hudson, a free man in a time of slavery, trained first in New Orleans and then in Paris. He returned, however, to New Orleans in the 1830s where he worked as a professional artist and instructor. Specializing in portraits and miniatures, his self-portrait is the only known work of its type painted by an African-American artist from the colonial period.
