Armand
Guillaumin, but in a palette
and technique
not normally associated with
this artist.
The painting is of high quality,
however,
and is representative of the
French Impressionist
school. It is priced accordingly.
Biography: French painter and lithographer. He grew
up in Moulins, but at 16 he returned
to Paris
to find work. Despite the opposition
of his
working-class family, he prepared
for an
artistic career while he supported
himself
in municipal jobs. He started
drawing classes
and then enrolled in the Académie
Suisse,
where he met Cézanne and Camille
Pissarro.
Guillaumin began his career as
an avant-garde
artist by exhibiting with them
at the Salon
des Refusés in 1863. He was also
active in
the Manet circle at the Café
Guerbois, from
which Impressionism developed.
