French 1836-1904 Henri Fantin Latour Locations Bure) French painter and printmaker. He was trained by his father, a portrait painter, and at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts.

His portrait groups, reminiscent of 17th-century Dutch guild portraits, depict literary and artistic persons of the time; his flower paintings were especially popular in England, thanks to James McNeill Whistler and John Everett Millais, who found patrons to support him. His later years were devoted to lithography.  Related Paintings of Henri Fantin-Latour :. | Henri Fantin-Latour's art | Still Life 5 | Stilleben mit Blumen und Fruchten | Still life with Flowers and Fruit | Vase of Roses |
