Who is Henri Gervex?

Born in 1852 in Paris, Henri Gervex is one of the most emblematic painters of French modernity at the end of the 19th century. A student of Alexandre Cabanel, he quickly distinguished himself with a direct, bold painting style that is deeply rooted in his time.

Close to the Impressionists while maintaining a solid academic training, Henri Gervex represents cafés, streets, leisure scenes, and modern female figures with a new freedom. His work Rolla, presented at the Salon, marks a turning point with its frontal nature and embraced modernity.
