François Haussaire
1851–1924 (age 73)
Biography
François Haussaire devoted his life to the subtleties of oil and watercolor, capturing the gentle rhythms of the French countryside and the quiet dignity of urban scenes in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
His work earned the admiration of fellow painters and patrons alike, and though time has quieted his name, visitors to the cimetière du Nord may still pause to honor the painter whose brush once celebrated the world in tender light.
