Armand Guillaumin (Born 1841) was born in a working class family in Paris. They immigrated to Moulins where he spent his vacations as a child. He started to work in his uncle’s store in 1857 when he was only 15. Concurrently he was attending evening class drawing lessons. At 19, he was engaged as an employee on the Paris-Orleans railway line. But he never left drawing. He kept on drawing during his free time. He later joined the Academy Suisse where he met Pissarro and Cezanne, with whom he would, in all his lifetime, remain close friends. Since he could not live from his painting, he spent 2 years living in hardship. From 1868 he started working in the Highways Department as a night working employee, so as to be able to paint during day time. In early 1870s, Guillaumin worked with Pontoise in Pissarro, sharing with him his love for landscapes. His paintings became more subjective in the 1890s, and he started using very expressive colors, and soon he was anticipating the Fauves. In 1891 Guillaumin won the National Lottery, and this enabled him to concentrate on his painting and to move regularly between Saint-Pala is-sure-Mar Agway and Crozant, as well as travel to Holland. In the late 1880s, Guillaumin became friends with Théo Van Gogh, and some of his paintings were sold by Van Gogh. Guillaumin died in 1927 at the age of 86. He was the last survivor of the Impressionists group, of whom he was one of the most faithful and fair member. Today, framed Armand Guillaumin art are found in many collections in Paris and beyond.
