Gustave Poetzsch Portrait Drawings and Watercolors

French, 1870-1950

Gustave Poetzsch was born in Switzerland in 1870. He came to Paris in 1892 and enrolled at the School of Fine Arts. He then studied in the workshops of Luc Olivier Merson and Gustave Moreau with the likes of Henri Matisse, Charles Camoin and Paul de Frick. He painted scenes of the Belle Epoque in Paris, many pretty ladies drinking absinthe in bars that could well have been frequented by the likes of Degas and Toulouse-Lautrec. His beach scenes from his holidays around Deauville are simply sublime.
