About the Item
Antoine Blanchard, was born in France on November 15, 1910, in a small village near the banks of the Loire. He was the eldest of three children. His father, a carver, managed a small carpentry and furniture shop. Antoine would watch his father hand carve the furniture and began to display an artistic flair early in life. His parents sent him to Blois for drawing lessons to foster this talent. He continued his training in Rennes at the École des Beaux-Arts, where he studied sculpture and drawing. Upon completing his studies, he was awarded the school's highest award, the Prix du Ministre.
By 1932, Blanchard left Rennes and traveled to Paris to study. He enrolled at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and, after a few years, entered the competition for the Prix de Rome. It was in Paris that he developed a love for the city and its street life.
In 1939, Blanchard married a young woman he met in Paris. The Second World War broke out in September of that year, and he was called up for military service. It was not until 1942 that he would return to his art. His daughter Nicole was born in 1944 and would later follow in her father's footsteps working as an artist under the name A. Champeau. Around the time Nicole was born, Blanchard’s father passed away. This compelled him to return to his hometown and run the family carpentry business, giving him little time to paint.
His subjects were often historical monuments and buildings in Paris, such as the Madeleine flower market, the Café de la Paix, Notre Dame, and the Arc de Triomphe.
He is considered one of the leading representatives of the Paris School of painting.
He died on August 10, 1988, in Paris, France.
