Collection: Albert Joseph Pénot

Albert Joseph Pénot (1862–1930) was a French painter. Born in Xermaménil, Meurthe-et-Moselle, he died in Paris. His early work encompassed female nudes and landscapes.

Pénot's artistic focus evolved to include a distinct subset of paintings centered on women with darker, more macabre themes. This thematic development is exemplified by works such as "La femme chauve-souris."
