Paul Albert Besnard (Parigi 1849 - 1934)born in Paris, was the son of an artist; his father, Louis Adolphe, was a painter and his mother, Louise Pauline Vaillant, was an esteemed miniaturist, a pupil of Lizinska de Mirbel. Besnard first studied drawing and
painting with Jean-François Brémond and at 17 entered the École des Beaux-Arts, where he was taught by Alexandre Cabanel.
In 1874 he won the Prix de Rome with the canvas "Death of Timofane, tyrant of Corinth", and during his stay at Villa Medici he had the opportunity to meet Franz Liszt and his pupil André Worsmer, whose portrait he painted in 1877. his stay in Italy and, in
1879he married the sculptor Charlotte Dubray, daughter of the sculptor Gabriel-Vital Dubray, with whom he moved to England for three years, until 1884, exhibiting at the Royal Academy of Arts in London.
At the Paris Salon of 1886 his "Portrait of Madame Roger Jourdain" (today at the Musée d'Orsay), highlighted those characters that would become his true style, based on a very personal use of lights and shadows, influenced by the Impressionism and the Carolus-Duran technique.
