Please note: Artists not classified as American in our database may have limited biographical data
compared to the extensive information about American artists.
Antoine Blanchard was born in France on November 15, 1910 in a small
village near the banks of the Loire. He was the eldest of three
children and his father, a carver, managed a small carpentry and
furniture shop. Antoine would watch his father hand carve the
furniture and began to display an artistic flair early in life - in an
effort to promote this talent, his parents sent him to Blois for
drawing lessons. He continued his training in Rennes at the Ecole
des Beaux-Art (showing 500 of 9873 characters). |
