        <h1 class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Jean Baptise Armand Guillaumin (1841-1927)</h1>
      </div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">We Perform Jean Baptiste Armand Guillaumin was an artist who produced Impressionist paintings and lithographs. He was particularly well known for his landscape paintings of the Paris, Creuse and Esterel regions. He was born in Paris to a working class family who had recently moved there from the Bourbonnais region in France. At the age of fifteen, he started working for his uncle, who owned a lingerie shop. In the evenings, he spent his time attending drawing classes.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">He later on attended the Academy of the painter Charles Suisse in Paris where he met the artists Cezanne and Pissarro. He was to make friends with them, and remained so for the rest of his life. He changed his working life to allow himself more time to dedicate himself to his love of art. He began night work at the Highways department which allowed him to paint during the day.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">He had a strong interest in painting the lives of the working class in Paris and was particularly interested in depicting the spaces they inhabited. He was drawn towards portraying the new residential and industrial areas of the expanding Paris of the day.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">In the beginning of the 1870s, he worked with Pissarro in the village of Pointoise. He shared Pissarro’s love of landscapes and working with Pissarro enabled him to perfect and develop his art of landscape painting. A particularly well known painting from this time entitled, ‘Sunset at Ivry,’ hangs in the Musee d’Orsay. Together with Pissarro he frequently visited Dr Paul Gachet in Auvers. Dr Gachet was a Socialist and ‘Free Thinker’ of the time who had close links with the Impressionists of the day. Whilst in Auvers, Pissarro completed a portrait of Guillaumin entitled, Guillaumin at the Hanged Man.</p>

      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Landscape la Folie</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Guillaumin was to go on to become very good friends with Vincent Van Gogh, who of course also had strong connections with Dr Gachet. Van Gogh’s brother Theo also sold a number of paintings by Guillaumin. He became a frequent visitor at the Cafe Guerbois in Bagnitolles, where all the of the Impressionist painters of the time met to discuss the politics of the day and of course their art. He formed part of the first group of Impressionist artists to exhibit at the Impressionist exhibition of 1874. He was also to exhibit at a number of subsequent Impressionist exhibitions.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">In 1886, Guillaumin married his cousin who was a schoolteacher and she gave him a lot of financial support which enabled him to pass more of his time concentrating on his painting. In 1891, he had an extraordinary stroke of good luck and he won the National Lottery. This enabled him to devote himself entirely to his painting and he spent time traveling and painting in the South of France as well as in Holland.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">In the 1890s, he began using more expressive colours and this has led some art experts to state that in some of his paintings of this period he was anticipating the Fauves movement. He produced many colour works at this time such as, ‘Ruins in Crozat.’</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Whilst Guillaumin never attained the stature of Cezanne and Pissarro, he certainly influenced them, for example Cezanne attempted his first etching based on a Guillaumin painting of barges on the Seine.</p>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Paintings by Guillaumin can be seen all over the world, including in the National Gallery of Art in Washington and the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg.</p>
