Louis Anquetin (1861–1932) was a French painter associated with the Post-Impressionist movement and one of the originators of Cloisonnism. Born in Étrépagny, he studied in Paris under Léon Bonnat and Fernand Cormon, where he formed close ties with Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Émile Bernard, and Vincent van Gogh.
Around 1887, Anquetin and Bernard developed a distinctive style using flat areas of color outlined by bold black contours, inspired by stained glass and Japanese prints. His nocturnal scenes of Paris, such as Avenue de Clichy, captured the energy of modern city life. Later in his career, he turned toward the techniques of the Old Masters, particularly Rubens, producing more traditional and allegorical works.
Though his fame faded after abandoning the avant-garde, Anquetin remains an important figure in late 19th-century French art. These striking works showcase the bold vision and lasting influence of Louis Anquetin, a key innovator of Cloisonnism and modern Parisian painting.
