Durant ses mois d&rsquo;incarc\u00e9ration \u00e0 la prison du Pied-du-Courant \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al en 1838, il r\u00e9alise une centaine de portraits de ses compatriotes emprisonn\u00e9s pour haute trahison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ces portraits de patriotes furent r\u00e9alis\u00e9s avec fort peu de ressources. Malgr\u00e9 des conditions pr\u00e9caires, ils r\u00e9v\u00e8lent un artiste en pleine ma\u00eetrise de son art et t\u00e9moignent d&rsquo;une grande sensibilit\u00e9. Girouard a ainsi croqu\u00e9 sur le vif les traits distinctifs de ses hommes alors que r\u00e9gnait sur eux la plus grande incertitude sur le sort qui leur serait r\u00e9serv\u00e9. Certains de ces portraitur\u00e9s, dont Nelson, de Lorimier, La Fontaine ou Morin, ont laiss\u00e9 leur nom dans l&rsquo;histoire; d&rsquo;autres \u00e9taient par contre inconnus, mais leur fraternit\u00e9 manifeste dans l&rsquo;engagement fait de cette exposition un t\u00e9moignage visuel particuli\u00e8rement \u00e9mouvant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-container-2 wp-block-gallery-1 wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img src=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/IMG_5934-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"1617\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/?attachment_id=1617\" class=\"wp-image-1617\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img src=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/IMG_5935-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"1618\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/?attachment_id=1618\" class=\"wp-image-1618\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img src=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/IMG_5936-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"1619\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/?attachment_id=1619\" class=\"wp-image-1619\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img src=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/IMG_5938-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"1620\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/?attachment_id=1620\" class=\"wp-image-1620\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img src=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/IMG_5939-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"1621\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/?attachment_id=1621\" class=\"wp-image-1621\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img src=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/IMG_5941-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"1622\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/?attachment_id=1622\" class=\"wp-image-1622\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img src=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/IMG_5948-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"1623\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/?attachment_id=1623\" class=\"wp-image-1623\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img src=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/IMG_5950-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"1624\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.jonathanlemire.com\/?attachment_id=1624\" class=\"wp-image-1624\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>L&rsquo;exposition&nbsp;<strong>Visages des r\u00e9bellions &#8211; Jean-Joseph Girouard, patriote portraitiste<\/strong>&nbsp;a pour but de retracer l&rsquo;oeuvre et le parcours hors du commun du patriote-artiste qu&rsquo;est Jean-Joseph Girouard.
