Pierre Adolphe Valette was a French Impressionist painter who is most famous for his stunning Impressionist paintings of Manchester City in London. He is also well known for being the teacher and mentor of the world renowned British painter, L.S. Lowry.

Very little is known about his early life, apart from the fact that he was born in St. Etienne, and that his family was very poor. It is also known that he first studied in the local art school in St. Etienne. He then moved to Lyon where he worked as a painter and an engraver, while continuing his art studies. He was a great traveller, and in 1903, he won a scholarship which took him to England, where he enrolled at the Birbeck Institute in London. For reasons which are unknown, he then moved to Manchester. He enrolled in evening classes at the Manchester Municipal School of Art. In 1905, he also began designing greeting cards and calendars for a Manchester printing company. In 1906, he was asked to join the staff of the Manchester Municipal School of Art. It is said that his unique and original teaching style completely changed the School of Art in Manchester.

It was while Valette was in Manchester, that he produced stunning Impressionist scenes of the city, including its bustling streets and scenes of its sombre canals in the winter. Manchester, with its rain and fog was a perfect subject for an Impressionist painter, as Impressionism was of course very concerned with atmospheric changes.

Valette’s student L. S. Lowry greatly admired him, and Valette taught him new techniques, and showed him the potential of the urban landscape as a subject.

Valette exhibited regularly in Manchester, as well as at the Society of Modern Painters in Liverpool. In 1928, Valette returned to live in France, and spent much of the later part of his life producing landscapes of France. As a member of the Impressionist group, paintings by Valette are highly collectable.
