Lucien Henri Weil
French
Lucien Henri Weil (1860-1930) was a French painter and illustrator who was born on March 5, 1860, in Paris, France. He studied at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and began his career as an illustrator for French newspapers and magazines.
Weil was known for his depictions of daily life in Paris, often featuring scenes from popular cafes and theaters. He also created illustrations for books, including works by Victor Hugo and Emile Zola.
In addition to his illustration work, Weil was a prolific painter, producing landscapes, portraits, and still-life paintings in a style influenced by Impressionism and Post-Impressionism. He exhibited his work at the Salon des Indépendants and the Salon d'Automne, two prominent exhibitions of avant-garde art in Paris.
Weil's work is highly regarded for its lively colors, fluid brushwork, and atmospheric effects, which capture the spirit of turn-of-the-century Paris. He passed away on June 10, 1930, in Saint-Mandé, France.
