In the heart of the 19th century, in the tranquil town of Ivry-sur-Seine, Georges Moreau de Tours saw the light of day on April 4, 1848. In the decades that followed, he was to become known as a history painter and illustrator far beyond the borders of his native France. It is a fascinating story, marked by artistic dedication and a touch of drama, that surrounds the work of this extraordinary artist - a story that we passionately strive to preserve and pass on through our high-quality art prints of his works. Georges Moreau de Tours was born into a family marked by a deep curiosity about human consciousness. His father, Jacques-Joseph Moreau, was a pioneer in the field of psychiatry who even considered hemp as a treatment for mental illness. His brother Paul followed in his father's footsteps and made a career in psychiatry and criminology. This environment, marked by intellectual rigor and a constant search for understanding, undoubtedly played a role in Georges' own artistic career.
In 1865, when Georges was just seventeen years old, he entered the venerable halls of the École des Beaux-Arts, where he studied under the tutelage of the renowned Alexandre Cabanel. His student days marked the beginning of an illustrious career that took him repeatedly to the Salon until 1896, where he exhibited regularly. But his artistic range was not limited to canvas paintings. He also proved his artistic skill as an illustrator of dramas by the great Victor Hugo, such as Amy Robsart and Marie Tudor, and even created three scenes for the wedding room in the City Hall in the second arrondissement. The year 1892 marked a particular high point in Georges' career, when he was awarded the Legion of Honor - a sign of the highest recognition for his significant role in the French art scene. And even after his death in 1901, his influence continued in his hometown of Bois-le-Roi, where a street was named after him. Painting even remained alive in his own family: His wife Thérèse, a former pupil of his, became an acclaimed painter in her own right. Georges Moreau de Tours leaves us a legacy that is striking in its impressive breadth and depth. In our work, we strive to live up to this legacy by producing fine art prints of his work of the highest quality. Every stroke, every detail is reproduced with the utmost care to reflect the vision and talent of this remarkable artist in all its glory.
