Keman, Georges Antoine
(Schlettstadt 1765-1830 Schlettstadt)
Keman travelled to Paris in 1784 and became a student of the miniaturist Diebolt. Five years later, he returned to Schlettstadt; during the following year, he worked in Strasbourg. Back in Paris, he portrayed several members of the aristocracy as well as actors and actresses. In 1792, he travelled to London and four years later to Bristol, where he married Hannah Smith. Living in London since 1807, he made journeys to France, Switzerland and Italy and finally took up residence in his native town, Schlettstadt.
