An emigrant from Zurich, Switzerland to Richmond, Virginia, Henry Bebie was in Baltimore by 1844 and became a highly successful portraitist in that city. He also did genre and interior paintings. Many of his interiors were of men and women visiting and were reportedly scenes from fashionable brothels.
