Henri Le Sidaner - The Italian Boutique [1924]


Henri Le Sidaner (Port Louis, Mauritius, August 7, 1862 – July 1939) was an Intimist painter born to a French family. In 1870 he and his family settled in Dunkirk. Le Sidaner received most of his tutelage from the Ecole des Beuax-Arts under the instruction of Alexandre Cabanel but later broke away due to artistic differences. He travelled extensively throughout France and also visited many cities around the globe such as London, New York, Venice and Paris as well as some small villages throughout Europe.
