Henri Lenoir was a French landscape painter known for his innovative technique of divisionism, which challenges the viewer to meld colors while creating shadows and light within his works. Lenoir was a master of this technique, characterized by bold colors and confident brush strokes.

Born in 1939 and passing in 2015, Lenoir was a prominent figure in the 20th and 21st centuries in France. Influenced by the Fauvist masters and their vibrant use of color and texture, his work captures the essence of the French Riviera. Lenoir attended L'École des Beaux-Arts and exhibited his art in Paris, Bordeaux, and Oslo.

He spent part of each year in the South of France, painting scenes of cities, beaches, and boat-filled harbors set against the stunning panoramic views of the Mediterranean. Lenoir's body of work includes oil paintings on canvas, pastel studies, and illustrations, dating from 1959 to 2010
