Henri Manguin was born in Paris on March 23, 1874 and entered the Ecole des Beaux-Arts. Like Henri Matisse and Charles Camoin, with whom he became close friends, he studied under Gustave Moreau.
Like his companions, Manguin made copies of Renaissance art, which were bought by the State and placed in the Louvre. Manguin was very much influenced by Impressionism as seen in his use of bright pastel hues.
He married in 1899 and made numerous portraits of his wife, Jean (showing 500 of 2280 characters). |
