——————

Lucien Virot (1909–2003) was a French artist and designer born in Paris. A graduate of the École supérieure des arts appliqués de Paris, he worked notably for the Damon Establishments, specialists in artistic stained glass.

He produced numerous cartoons and projects for stained glass windows, for religious buildings but also for restaurants, buildings and institutions. In the 1940s, he also became interested in furniture and lighting in the Art Deco spirit.

His oeuvre also includes watercolors, gouaches, drawings and paintings, often devoted to female figures, animals, landscapes and decorative compositions. Several works are precisely dated from the 1930s to the 1980s.
