Albert André
Lyon, 1869-Laudun, 1954
Albert André was born in Lyon where his father owned a silk hat factory. He studied at the Lycée in Lyon and spent his holidays in Laudun (Gard). Towards 1885 he took up drawing and worked on projects for the silk industry. Faced with his lack of enthusiasm towards this activity, his family accepted to send him to Paris so that he could dedicate himself seriously to the study of painting. He moved to Paris probably around 1889 and attended the Académie Julian where he met, among others, Paul Ranson (a member of the Nabis group) and Valtat. In 1894 he took part for the first time in the Salon des Indépendants. He was noticed by Renoir, who recommended him to Durand-Ruel, his future dealer. This marked the beginning of his career as an artist. In the years that followed, he took part with Toulouse-Lautrec in the stage design for the Chariot de Terre Cuite (an avant-garde play given at the Théâtre de L'Ouvre). With Maurice Denis, Bonnard and Vuillard (all members of the Nabis group), he exhibited works at Bing's, the important Japanese Art dealer and inventor of the Art Nouveau style. His talent was recognised after his first personal exhibition at Durand-Ruel in 1904, and numerous exhibitions and commissions followed. He appeared next to Monet, Cézanne, Renoir, Pissarro in the exhibition entitled Natures Mortes (Durand-Ruel 1908), was commissioned a large decorative panel for the French pavilion at the Universal Exhibition in Turin, and was chosen to celebrate the Interpretation du Midi at the Salon de La Libre Esthétique in Brussels (1913), while his first personal exhibition in New York (Durand-Ruel 1912) met with great success. Then came the war and his demobilisation in 1917, followed by his move to Endoume, near Marseille, where the artist, rediscovering the pleasure of painting, signed some of his most beautiful works (The Day of the Armistice, Walk in Endoume, Terrace by the Sea).

他是雷诺阿以及后来莫奈传记与后期肖像的作者，在后期作品中以生动而真实的场景描绘他所画的人物。

周围有如朱莉•玛内特、皮埃尔·雷诺阿、马尔克以及保罗·西涅克等朋友，他的一生在巴黎度过，担任秋季沙龙秘书，以及长期逗留在洛多（他曾任巴尼奥贝省美术馆馆长），二战时他在 Laudun 隐居。

渐渐地，早年的明亮调色变得柔和。但 Albert André 仍对自我、对私密感、他那低声的室内、熟悉的物件、花卉、花瓶、家具、镜子、以及 Laudun 的敞开窗户中的风景保持忠诚——“他在门前的风景、花园里的花以及他的朋友们身上找到了他的模特儿”（G. Mermillon）。
