Description: | Signed: yes Description: Stanislas Lépine was born in Caen, Normandy, to a family of cabinet-makers, and came to Paris in 1855. In 1866 he was apprenticed to the landscape painter Jean Baptiste Camille Corot (1796-1875), which was to prove highly influential to his art. Lépine was always situated on the margin of the artistic groups with which he was associated, gaining little recognition during his lifetime. However, his work may be said to provide a link between the naturalism of the Barbizon School and the Impressionist style. The Impressionists admired his work and in 1874 invited Lépine to exhibit in the first Impressionist exhibition. | Subjects: | landscape; figure; animal (goat) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Lépine, Stanislas (French painter, 1835-1892) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9198... | Go to resource |
