ANDRE VIGNOLES
French, b. 1920
André Vignoles is a painter of still lifes and portraits, but is best known for his representations of the landscape. During the 1940s, Vignoles studied painting in Paris and frequently submitted his works to the Salon d’Automne where he was a member of the Council. Between 1951 and 1959, he exhibited his works in Paris at the Salon au Jeunes Peintres. He died in 2017.
The Arc de Triomphe de l'Étoile is one of the most famous monuments in Paris, France, standing at the western end of the Champs-Élysées at the centre of Place Charles de Gaulle, formerly named Place de l'Étoile—the étoile or "star" of the juncture formed by its twelve radiating avenues. The location of the arc and the plaza is shared between three arrondissements, 16th (south and west), 17th (north), and 8th (east). The Arc de Triomphe honours those who fought and died for France in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, with the names of all French victories and generals inscribed on its inner and outer surfaces. Beneath its vault lies the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier from World War I.

Throughout his teaching career Tangye quietly developed a particularly idiosyncratic art practice.
