About the artist:

Yves Brayer (18 November 1907 – 29 May 1990) was a French painter known for his paintings of everyday life.

He was born in Versailles. He studied in Paris at the academies in Montparnasse starting in 1924, and then at the École des Beaux-Arts with Lucien Simon. He settled back in Paris in 1934, organizing his first solo exhibition. He remained in occupied Paris during World War II. After the war, he traveled widely to Mexico, Egypt, Iran, Greece, Russia, the United States and Japan, trying to capture the light and colors of each country.

In 1954 Brayer was awarded to Grand prix des Beaux-Arts de la Ville de Paris, and he was elected to the Académie des Beaux-Arts in 1957. He was president of the Salon d'Automne for five years. In 1977 he was made curator of the Musée Marmottan in Paris, a position he held for 11 years. See less
