Louis Anquetin:
Louis Anquetin (1861–1932) was a French painter celebrated for co-founding Cloisonnism, a Post-Impressionist style defined by bold contours and flat, vibrant color fields.
After studying in Paris alongside artists like Toulouse-Lautrec and Van Gogh, Anquetin’s innovative works-such as Avenue de Clichy: Five O’Clock in the Evening-captured the energy of Parisian nightlife and influenced major contemporaries.
Later in his career, he shifted focus to classical techniques inspired by Old Masters, which distanced him from the avant-garde but deepened his study of anatomy and traditional oil painting. Though his fame waned, Anquetin’s artistic legacy endures through his pioneering role in modern art and his influence on leading figures of his era.
