Paul LaCroix (born in France 1827-1869) was an American painter. His artworks have the influence of the German-American still-life painter Severin Roesen. Paintings by LaCroix hang in world best museums like: the Brooklyn Museum, New York City, Springfield Museum of Art, Ohio, and the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, Madrid. The style of Lacroix is distinct within the still life genre. He often brought together both still life and landscape by painting still life objects such as fruit in a natural setting. [1]
Known for lush still life painting with fruit, vegetables and flowers, and for being a part of the 19th century movement, which made that subject matter accepted by the viewing public, Paul LaCroix was an artist of noted composition and technique. He also painted a few landscape subjects. [2]
Still Life with Chrysanthemums, 1864.
