Why Is Ary Scheffer Influential?

According to Wikipedia, Ary Scheffer was a Dutch-French Romantic painter.

He was also a prolific painter of portraits of famous and influential people in his lifetime. Politically, Scheffer had strong ties to King Louis Philippe I, having been employed as a teacher of the latter's children, which allowed him to live a life of luxury for many years until the French Revolution of 1848.
