A representative painter of the School of Paris 1887-1985

With diverse and brilliant colors, he depicted the love between men and women, and the worlds of the Bible and mythology as fairy tales. Landscapes and figures blend in color, and time and space merge, creating a dreamlike world of paintings with illusory colors and atmosphere, from which one can feel the love for his wife and homeland, as well as a message seeking love and peace.
