Artist Biography
René Prinet studied under Gérome, Courtois and Dagnan-Bouveret and, with Albert Besnard, Aman-Jean and Bourdelle, created the Salon des Tuileries in Paris. He taught many students at the Académie Libre he ran in Montparnasse, then at the École Nationale des Beaux-Arts where he was in charge of the women's studio. He was noted for his interiors and portraits, including the Saglio Family. He was also a history and religious painter, leaving an Adoration of the Magi in the church of St-Ferieux in Besançon. Also by him are Small Quadrille in the Opéra library, Four Seasons at the Palais of the Légion d'Honneur and decorations at the Musée d'Art Moderne. He illustrated Balzac, Pierre Loti and Anatole France, and wrote Introduction to Painting ( Initiation à la peinture), but failed to complete his in-depth study of Painters' Writings ( Écrits de peintres). His wit and verve earned him a special place in Parisian society.
He was a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts and obtained many artistic distinctions, and was Officier and Grand-Croix of the Légion d'Honneur. He exhibited from 1885 at the Salon des Artistes Français, from 1890 at the Salon de la Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts, and then at the Salon des Tuileries. A retrospective of his work was held in 1986 at the Musée Bourdelle in Paris.
