L'Abandon (1924)

L'Abandon (1924)


Description: L'Abandon
Date: before 1924

Author: Guillaume Seignac (1870–1924)
Guillaume Seignac (1870 - 1924). Working during the last half of the 19th century, Guillaume Seignac typifies the French academic style which was preached by the Salon and l’Ecole des Beaux-Arts - where there was daily instruction in life drawing, anatomy, perspective and painting. During the end of the 19th century, Seignac was living in Paris at rue de Fleurus, 26 (moving to Boulevard du Montparnasse, 84 in 1902) and studied with Tony Robert-Fleury, Gabriel Ferrier and William A. Bouguereau; the latter, being one of the driving forces in the Salon at this time, was to have the greatest influence on him.
