Eugène Emmanuel Viollet‐le‐Duc
1814‐79
French restoration architect, architectural historian, and architectural theorist. Born in Paris. He avoided the Ecole des Beaux-Arts (National School of Fine Arts) and studied architecture on his own. He was recognized by P. Mérimée, the Director of Cultural Heritage Protection, and was tasked with repairing the Church of La Madeleine in Vézelay. He then worked with veteran architect Jean-Baptiste Lassus to restore Notre-Dame de Paris from 1845, solidifying his position. He later served as a member of the Commission for the Protection of Cultural Heritage and as the Director of Architecture for the Ministry of Religious Affairs, and was responsible for the restoration of cathedrals such as Chartres, Reims, and Amiens, the walls of Carcassonne, and the Château de Pierrefonds (ordered by Napoleon III).
