A representative painter of the School of Paris, 1887 - 1985.

He depicted the world of love between men and women, biblical stories, and myths as a fairy tale world, using diverse and brilliant colors. His paintings, where landscapes and figures melt into color and time and space merge, create an illusory world of color and atmosphere, conveying a sense of love for his wife and hometown, as well as a message advocating for love and peace.
