Paul Camille Guigou (c.1834-1871) Art
Paul Camille Guigou was a French landscape painter. Guigou was born in Villars, Vaucluse in a wealthy family of farmers and notaries. He studied painting in Apt and later with Emile Loubon in Marseille. From 1854–61, he worked as a notary clerk in Marseille. In 1863, after Loubon's death, he left Marseille for Paris, where he lived for most of his life. Guigou frequented Café Guerbois, a regular location of many future impressionist painters. Guigou painted mostly Provence landscapes using oil and watercolor. His early art was influenced by Loubon and later by the Barbizon School and Gustave Courbet. He did not gain widespread recognition during his lifetime and was often met with indifference at public exhibitions. Unable to survive financially from his paintings, he also worked as an art tutor and critic. Guigou died in Paris at the age of 37 from a stroke. After his death, his pieces generally fell from the public eye for around thirty years until the Centennial Exposition of French Art in 1900, where he was rediscovered. Guigou's paintings can be found on public display in both Paris and Marseille.
