Oil Paintings by Paul Albert Besnard, France 1849 to 1934
Paul Albert Besnard was born in Paris and studied at the École des Beaux-Arts, studied with Jean Bremond and was influenced by Alexandre Cabanel.Besnard followed the academic tradition until about 1880,but then broke away completely, and devoted himself to the study of colour and light as conceived by the Impressionists. The realism of this group never appealed to his bold imagination, but he applied their technical method to ideological and decorative works on a large scale
