"Paris Seen from Montmartre"
1887. Oil on canvas. Musée du Petit Palais, Paris, France.
Painter, lithographer and draftsman, Maximilien Luce was born in Paris on March 13, 1858. In the 1880s he met and established friendly contacts with many Parisian painters, including Camille Pissarro (1830-1903), George-Pierre Seurat (1859-1891) and Paul Signac (1863-1935). Together with them he was one of the founders of Neo-Impressionism (Pointillism). [1]
Foggy Morning, Voisins
(1839-1899)
British painter. Sisley did not live to see his talent recognized, however, a year after his death, his painting "Flood at Port-Marly" (Orsay Museum - Paris) reached a high bidding.
Sisley was exclusively a landscape painter, who, in the line of Corot, and with Claude Monet, best sought and succeeded in expressing the most subtle nuances of nature in Impressionist landscapes. [2]
The Seine at Chatou.
Pierre Auguste Renoir (1841-1919).
Guest painter
