"Henri Lebasque Biography
Dubbed “the painter of joy and light,” Henri Lebasque vibrantly evoked the sun-dappled landscapes and plush interiors of the French Riviera. A transitional figure between the Impressionists and the Fauves, his lively compositions show an attentiveness to the subtle shifts and diffusions of natural light as well as a readiness to inject purely expressive hues and gestures to a boldly emotive affect.
Henri Lebasque was born on September 25, 1865 in Champigné, Maine-et-Loire, France. At the age of 20, he went to Paris to study under the masterful academician Léon Bonnat. He soon befriended the seminal Impressionists Camille Pissarro and Auguste Renoir, as well as Édouard Vuillard and Pierre Bonnard, the founders of Les Nabis. In 1903, Lebasque became a founding member of the Salon d’Autumne, exhibiting alongside Henri Matisse, Albert Gleizes and Jacques Villon. Two years later, the Salon hosted the inaugural exhibition of the Fauves, whose ferocity of color and painterly exuberance exerted a strong effect on Lebasque’s mature work. Equally influential to Lebasque’s brightening palette was his move to the French Rivera, where he captured sunset sails, windswept bathers, young women reclining in hammocks by the shade of palm trees and other scenes of summery luxury. Lebasque died at Le Cannet, Alpes-Maritimes on August 7, 1937. Twenty years later, a major retrospective exhibition was organized at the Musée des Ponchettes in Nice.
Today, Lebasque's works can be found in numerous public institutions around the world, including the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Spain, the National Museum of Western Art in Japan and the Harvard University Art Museum."

Henri Lebasque
Henri Lebasque (25 September 1865 – 7 August 1937) was a French post-impressionist painter. He was born at Champigné (Maine-et-Loire). Lebasque was a founding member of the Salon d'Automne in 1903 with his friend Henri Matisse. Two years later, a group of artists exhibited there including Georges Rouault, André Derain, Édouard Vuillard, and Matisse. Lebasque also became friends with artists such as Gustave Rouault, Raoul Dufy, Louis Valtat, and Henri Manguin, the last of whom introduced Lebasque to the South of France. His time in South of France would lead to a radical transformation in Lebasque’s paintings, changing his colour palette forever. Other travels included the Vendée, Normandy, and Brittany. His work is represented in French museums, notably Angers, Geneva (Petit Palais), Lille (Musée des Beaux-Arts), Nantes, and Paris (Musée d’Orsay). Lebasque died at Cannet, Alpes Maritimes in 1937.

At the same time, he joined the municipal drawing school, where his exceptional predispositions were very quickly noted. In 1884, at the age of 18, Léon Bellemont left Langres to join Paris and its National School of Decorative Arts, then the prestigious Ecole des Beaux-Arts. There, he followed the teaching of Léon Bonnat, a renowned portraitist, and obtained his first rewards and several prizes. It was in 1892, however, that his artistic career took off, with his first participation in the Salon des artistes français, where he exhibited until 1956. A landscape and impressionist painter, particularly impressing marine worlds, Léon Bellemont stayed more and more regularly in Brittany at the beginning of the 20th century, where he painted numerous paintings. His notoriety grew, as did the profits from his sales, and the State itself ended up placing a few orders with him. His work “The Breton Faith” was, for example, acquired by the museum in Buenos Aires (Argentina). Subsequently, always in search of inspiration, Léon Bellemont travelled extensively. He was in Bruges from 1907 to 1909, then traveled across France for several years participating in exhibitions. During the First World War, he settled in Algiers where he remained for several years. He then returned to Paris, worked extensively there and achieved great fame. A socialite, he frequented salons and regularly received his friends Jules Adler...Category
