Jacques Thévenet Portrait Drawings and Watercolors

French, 1891-1989

Jacques Thévenet was born in Nièvre in 1891. He studied at the Académie Julian and, after World War I in 1919, he worked as a decorator at the atelier of Marcel Mathelin, who became his master and taught him the art of engraving and the different techniques of the graphic art. In 1922, Thévenet exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants, where he met the art critic Roger Allard. Thévenet worked for several magazines, realizing the illustrations. In 1997, a catalog was published to remember his work.
