hippolyte petitjean (1854 - 1929)
Hippolyte Petitjean was a French Neo-Impressionist painter of pointillism.
Hippolyte studied at the School of Fine Arts in Paris, where he became interested in Impressionism. He then mastered the Neo-Impressionist technique of pointillism to perfection. A close friend of Georges Serat, Petitjean regularly exhibited with fellow practitioners. Although he abandoned working with divided color for a few years, he resumed the pointillist technique around 1912, creating luminous watercolors. In his later watercolors, Petitjean used widely spaced circular dots of pure color, leaving much of the surface of the paper untouched.
Petitjean painted landscapes and portraits, still lifes and genre scenes.
