Collection: Jean Louis Forain

Jean-Louis Forain (23 October 1852 – 11 July 1931) was a French Impressionist painter and printmaker, working in media including oils, watercolour, pastel, etching and lithograph. Compared to many of his Impressionist colleagues, he was more successful during his lifetime, but his reputation is now much less exalted.

Among his canonical works are The Client and Dancer standing behind a covering slide. He worked primarily in portrait. His oeuvre falls under Realism.
