Arthur-Stanislas Diet

He entered the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in 1846, where he studied in the workshop of Félix Duban.

[3] This was followed by assisting his father-in-law, Gilbert, on a work-in-progress: rebuilding the Hôtel-Dieu, which was part of Haussmann's renovation of Paris.

Work on other health facilities would follow, notably an expansion of the Charenton Asylum (now known as the Esquirol Hospital), originally designed by Gilbert in 1845, and the construction of new buildings at the National Veterinary School of Alfort.

[4][5] In 1884, he was elected to the Académie des Beaux-Arts, where he took Seat #6 for architecture; succeeding Paul Abadie (deceased).

Two years later, he was a recipient of the Ordre des Palmes Académiques[6] Media related to Arthur-Stanislas Diet at Wikimedia Commons
