Original lithograph by Raymond Peynet. Raymond Peynet was born in Paris on 16th November 1908 "At 15 he gained entrance to the famous “Ecole des Arts Appliqués” a school which happened to be located just opposite the bistro owned by his parents (my grand-parents) who had moved from the Auvergne to Paris some years before. He really started learning his trade when he began work as a draughtsman for Tolmer, an advertising agency in Paris, doing various tasks from sweeping the floor to drawing labels for perfume bottles and decorating biscuit boxes, eventually progressing to the creation of various advertisements. In 1930 he married Denise and whose family name Damour was most appropriate. In order to make a better living, he started publishing his drawings in the Parisian press which included many popular editions at that time: Le Rire, Rire à deux, Paris magazine, The Boulevardier (a publication for the British population in Paris).

He drew a young, long-haired violinist playing alone in the kiosk and a young girl listening to him with great admiration. A number of years later the violinist was replaced by a poet and the girl became his lover. Les Amoureux de Peynet...
