Henri Lebasque

Henri Lebasque was a renowned French post-impressionist painter, celebrated for his vibrant use of color and light, earning him the nickname "the painter of joy and light." Henri Lebasque's artistic journey began at the École régionale des beaux-arts d'Angers, eventually leading him to Paris to study under Léon Bonnat. His interactions with prominent artists like Camille Pissarro, Auguste Renoir, Édouard Vuillard, and Pierre Bonnard deeply influenced his style, particularly his understanding of color theory from Georges Seurat and Paul Signac.

Henri Lebasque was a pivotal figure in the Salon d'Automne, co-founding it in 1903 alongside Henri Matisse. His art evolved significantly after moving to the South of France, where the luminous landscape inspired a transformation in his color palette. His works, which include landscapes, nudes, and domestic scenes, are distinguished by their light-filled and tender representations, capturing the essence of his surroundings.

Henri Lebasque's paintings are held in prestigious museums such as the Musée d'Orsay in Paris and the Museum of Fine Arts of Nancy. His piece "Sous la lampe" from 1904 is an example of his work featured in a museum collection.
