Born in 1927 in Évreux, André Raffin belongs to the prestigious École de Normandie, heir to great masters such as Boudin, Dufy, Friesz, and Monet. An artist deeply attached to his region, he develops a painting that is at once spontaneous, luminous, and sincere, oscillating between abstraction and realism without ever yielding to passing fashions.
Raffin exhibited for the first time at only 20 years old, at the Salon d’Automne in Paris, before becoming a renowned professional painter, notably crowned by the Young Painting Prize. His work, marked by vibrant energy and authentic sensitivity, quickly attracted a wide audience. His exhibitions, particularly in Great Britain, were very successful, and interest in his paintings remains very strong after his death in 2005.
Today, the paintings of André Raffin — Norman landscapes, Mediterranean scenes, brilliant gardens — are highly sought after for their expressive force, luminous palette, and ability to capture the soul of a place. His works regularly feature in galleries and in auction rooms, where they attract collectors and art enthusiasts in search of a living, warm, and timeless painting.
