A virtuoso of drawing and a master of drypoint, Paul-César Helleu was also an exceptional painter whose work was very much part of the Impressionist movement. Although today he is little known to the public at large, during his lifetime he was quite famous on both sides of the Atlantic. In 1928, Jacques-Émile Blanche wrote of him: «He was the most talented of all. Manet, Monet, Renoir were all convinced of this, just like we were.» And yet his name appears virtually nowhere in the history of Impressionist painting.
Thanks to testimony left by his daughter and research that has been carried out over the past fifteen years, we have been able to follow in the footsteps of this atypical painter and piece together the great majority of his large body of work. This abundantly illustrated book, which will be followed by a catalogue raisonné currently in preparation, takes us on a journey into Helleu's world, at the height of a period populated by characters dear to Marcel Proust.
