From the Roux Champion’ album ‘Dix Peintres du XX Siècle’, 1927.

Maximilien Luce (1858 – 1941, French) was one of the great representatives of the neo-impressionist movement.  Painter, engraver and watercolourist, Joseph-Victor Roux-Champion (1871 – 1953) was introduced to the Jullian Academy and then to Gustave Moreau's studio where he met Georges Rouault, Albert Marquet and especially Henri Matisse. The discovery of the art of Paul Gauguin in the gallery Durand-Ruel led him to stay in Pont-Aven in 1896, a trip that was for him decisive. From 1904, Joseph-Victor often went to Provence where he met the painter Auguste Renoir in Cagnes-sur-Mer.
