Simone de Virgile was born Simone Binon in Milon La Chepelle, France in
1917, to an artistic family. Her father, Georges Binon, was a
concert violinist and her mother, Suzanne Binon (nee Raingo), was a
classical pianist, and a niece by marriage to the French painter Claude
Monet.
Simone chose to paint and sculpt during her career under the name of “de Virgile,” which was her grandmother’s maiden name.
In 1935, she began to study painting at the Atelier of Morgan (showing 500 of 1726 characters). |
