Charles X Distributing Awards to Artists (French: Charles X distribuant des récompenses aux artistes exposants du salon de 1824 au Louvre, le 15 Janvier 1825) is an 1827 painting by the French artist François Joseph Heim.[1][2] It depicts the French monarch Charles X awarding legion of honours to artists who exhibited at the 1824 Paris Salon at a ceremony held on 15 January 1825. The King who had succeeded his brother Louis XVIII in 1824 is shown in the uniform of the National Guard.[3] It features portraits of many of the leading artists of the era. The royal official Ambroise-Polycarpe de La Rochefoucauld and the director of the Louvre Louis Nicolas Philippe Auguste de Forbin are shown close to the king.[4] Heim became a celebrated depicter of scenes of the Bourbon Restoration. It is now in the collection of the Louvre and is displayed in the Salon Carré.[5]
