A student of Paul Albert Laurens (1870-1934) at the Académie Julian, his figurative work, very colorful, with powerful and stripped down forms, made him one of the last representatives of Fauvism and the eldest of the group of Painters of Poetic Reality. He belongs to the School of Paris.
In 1943, Jacques de Laprade dedicated a book to Roger Limouse in the collection "The Masters of Tomorrow" directed by Francis Carco. He writes, "One of the characteristics of this personality is strength. There is nothing in Limouse that lacks relief. This small and extremely vigorous man seduces by his direct and dru language, by his deep conviction, by the picturesque of his stories, by his very life which testifies to his energy.
In 1948, Roger Limouse was appointed professor at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris (Professor at the School of Fine Arts). He held this position until 1964. In 1949, the journalist Gisèle d'Assailly (1904-1969) devoted a book "With the Painters of Poetic Reality" to eight friendly painters, supporters of a colorful and intimate figurative painting of French inspiration, Maurice Brianchon, Christian Caillard, Jules Cavaillès, Raymond Legueult, Roland Oudot, André Planson, Kostia Terechkovitch) and Roger Limouse, their eldest and who will be the last survivor of the group. Always attracted by the countries of the South, Roger Limouse will make many trips around the Mediterranean: Italy, Spain, Morocco and Madagascar, in addition to stays in the south of France to Collioure, Cassis (Bouches-du-Rhône), Cannes, Menton (Alpes-Maritimes) and Nice. A museum was dedicated to him in Chester (England), the Limouse Museum of the Flowers of Evil.
