About the Item

Lithograph on wove paper. Inscription: Unsigned and unnumbered. Good Condition. Notes: From L'Estampe Moderne, published by F. Champenois, Paris, 1897. EDMOND FRANÇOIS AMAN-JEAN (1858-1936) was a French symbolist painter, who co-founded the Salon des Tuileries in 1923. Aman-Jean established his reputation primarily for his portraits, especially of female subjects; he was also noted for his murals in public and official buildings, including the Sorbonne. Like many French artists of his generation, he was influenced by the new perspectives on Japanese art current in Paris in his day; more unusually, he was interested in the Pre-Raphaelite artists in England. He was a close friend of Georges Seurat; the two artists shared a Paris studio in 1879. Art historian Robert Herbert called Seurat's portrait of Aman-Jean, "one of the great portrait drawings of the nineteenth century." It was the first work Seurat showed, at the Paris Salon in 1883. Aman-Jean also worked in lithography and printmaking and designed posters. He was an influence to Picasso.
