André Chénier

Portrait during his last captivity by [[Joseph-Benoît Suvée|Suvée]] André Marie Chénier (; 30 October 176225 July 1794) was a French poet of Greek and Franco-Levantine origin, associated with the events of the French Revolution, during which he was sentenced to death. His sensual, emotive poetry marks him as one of the precursors of the Romantic movement. His career was brought to an abrupt end when he was guillotined for supposed "crimes against the state". Chénier's life has been the subject of Umberto Giordano's opera ''Andrea Chénier'' and other works of art. Provided by Wikipedia
