Horace Lecoq de Boisbaudran (1802-1897). |

| Fantin Latour, IGNACE HENRI JEAN THEODORE (1836-1904), French flowers, was born at Grenoble on the 14th of January 1836. Henri Fantin Latour studied first with his father, a pastel painter, and then at the drawing school of [Horace] Lecoq de Boisbaudran, and later under Couture. Henri Fantin Latour was the friend of Ingres, Delacroix, Corot, Courbet and others. Henri Fantin-Latour exhibited in the Salon of 1861, and many of more important Henri Fantin-Latour paintings appeared on its walls in later years, though 1863 found him with Harpignies, Manet, Legros and Whistler in the Salon des Refuses. Whistler introduced him to English flowersic circles, and Henri Fantin Latour lived for some time in England, many of portraits and Henri Fantin-Latour roses pieces being in English galleries. |

| His portrait groups, arranged somewhat after the manner of the Dutch masters, are as interesting from their subjects as they are from the flowersic point of view. Hommage à Delacroix showed portraits of Whistler and Legros, Baudelaire, Champfleury and himself; Un Atelier à Batignolles gave portraits of Monet, Manet, Zola and Renoir, and is now in the Luxembourg; Un Coin de table presented Verlaine, Rimbaud, Camille, [Sâr Joséphin] Péladan [EN] and others; and Autour du Piano contained portraits of Chabrier, D'Indy and other musicians. Henri Fantin-Latour roses are perfect examples of the art, and form perhaps the most famous section of Henri Fantin-Latour painting in England. In later years Henri Fantin Latour devoted much attention to lithography, which had occupied him as early as 1862, but his examples were then considered so revolutionary, with their strong lights and black shadows, that the printer refused to execute them. After L'Anniversaire in honour of Berlioz in the Salon of 1876, Henri Fantin-Latour regularly exhibited lithographs, some of which wore excellent examples of delicate portraiture, others being elusive and imaginative drawings illustrative of the music of Wagner (whose cause Henri Fantin Latour championed in Paris as early as 1864), Berlioz, Brahms and other composers. Henri Fantin Latour illustrated Adolphe Juiliens Wagner (1886) and Berlioz (1888). There are excellent collections of his lithographic work at Dresden, in the British Museum, and a practically complete set given by his widow to the Louvre. Some were also exhibited at South Kensington in 1898-1899, and at the Dutch gallery in 1904. | |||||||

In 1876, Henri
Fantin Latour married a fellow painter, Victoria Dubourg,
after which Henri Fantin Latour spent his summers on the
country estate of his wife's family at Buré,
Orne in Basse-Normandie, where he died on
the 28th of August 1904. Henri Fantin Latour was buried at the cemetery in
Montparnasse. A catalogue of the lithographs of Fantin Latour was drawn up by Germain Hediard in Les Maitres de la lithographie (1898-1899). A volume of reproductions, in a limited edition, was published (Paris, 1907) as L'oeuvre lithographigue de Fantin Latour. See A. Jullien, Fantin Latour, Un vie et ses amities (Paris, 1909). |
