Ready to be hung and enjoyed. Artist Biography: Paul Émile Vernon, born on 14 March 1872 in Blois, France, and died in the same town on 31 January 1920, was a French painter. Emile Vernon studied painting at the École des Beaux-Arts in Tours and received the first drawing prize in 1888. Then he studied William Bouguereau and Auguste Truphème at the school of the fine arts of Paris. In 1898, he participated in the Exhibition of Fine Arts and Decorative Arts in Tours and began exhibiting at the Salon des Artistes Français. He exhibited there regularly until 1913, presenting in particular portraits, landscapes, and floral paintings. He executed some wall paintings, such as those of the Châtellerault theater, in 1899. He excelled in watercolor paintings of women and children in bright colors and bucolic decorations, and also knew how to be more rigorous through the portrait of Madame Vernon, Under the Lamp. Mobilized in the territorial infantry in 1915, Émile Vernon was reformed for medical reasons the following year and died prematurely in January 1920.
