At the 1849 ''Salon'', Theodore Rousseau was commended with a first place medal, and he was made Chevalier of the Legion of Honor in 1852, due to his ability of painting in the "Naturalist" style. In 1855, he had a great success at the Universal Exhibition. In 1866, he was again elected to the Salon jury and the next year he was made President of the Jury of the Exposition Universelle. In 1867, Rousseau exhibited several pictures at the Exposition Universelle, receiving the Medal of Honor.
