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. Though he associated with progressive artists (Gustave Courbet, Eugene Delacroix, Edouard Manet), he was a traditionalist best known for his portraits and still lifes with flowers. 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 :. | White Roses, Chrysanthemums in a Vase, Peaches and Grapes on a Table with a White Tablecloth | Still Life (Aux Fiancailles) (mk09) | Still Life | The Reading | Still Life, |
