FANTIN LATOUR Theodore was a French pastellist painter Born in Metz in 1805. Died in Paris. He is the father of the painter Henri Fantin-Latour. Endowed for drawing and painting, Theodore Fantin-Latour studies in the workshop of the painter of History Benjamin Rolland (1777-1855) at the Art School of Grenoble.
Under the influence of his teacher (himself a student of Jacques-Louis David), disciple of neoclassicism, Fantin Latour became master of drawing and forms rendering. In 1834, he gets married with the daughter of the countess Zoloff, Hélène de Naidenoff, with whom he has three children, including future painter Henri Fantin-Latour born in 1836.
Recognizing the talent of his young son, he will be his first drawing teacher by 1846.
