Felice Cerruti Bauduc

Felice Cerruti Bauduc (1818 – November 24, 1896) was an Italian artist born in Turin.

Some books on Orientalist art give his name as Felice Cerruti Beauduc.

After completing his studies in veterinary science at Fossano, Felice Cerruti Bauduc was engaged in the Italian War of Independence, 1840-1850.

He subsequently decided to try and earn a living from painting and studied with Horace de Vernet who specialised in military scenes, many inspired by North Africa.
