Chapeau Epingle, Etching
French Impressionist painter. He met Claude Monet and Alfred Sisley in the early 1860s, and together they formed the nucleus of Impressionism. He developed a lively, colourful painting style with feathery brushwork (known as his ‘rainbow style’) and painted many scenes of everyday life, such as The Luncheon of the Boating Party (1881; Phillips Collection, Washington, DC), and also female nudes, such as The Bathers (about 1884-87; Philadelphia Museum of Art).

Le Cirque de L'Etoile Filante, Lithograph
French painter, etcher, illustrator, and designer. He was one of the major religious artists of the 20th century. Early in his career he was associated with the Fauves, but created his own highly distinctive style using rich, dark colours and heavy outlines. His subjects include clowns, prostitutes, lawyers, and religious figures, as in Christ Mocked (1932; Museum of Modern Art, New York).
