Painters & Their Masters

The listed painters of the French and European schools, movement by movement. Each name opens a biography written from the works in our collection.

Woman with her turkeys at the edge of a wood, signed and dated 1872 by Emile Michel, French oil on canvas in a carved gilt frame

Michel, Émile (1828-1909)

In 1872 he left the city the Germans had taken. The picture we hold carries that year on its face, and shows a woman with her turkeys.

Audra, Paul (1869-1948)

Audra, Paul (1869-1948)

He left Moreau's studio alongside Matisse. Thirty years later, in Nice, he helped his old classmate find somewhere to paint.
