EUGENE CARRIERE (French /
1849-1906)
Eugène Anatole Carrière was a major French Symbolist. Carrière's ghostly near-monochromatic canvases carry a special charge; they influenced even the great colourists Matisse and Picasso. Eugène Carrière's closest artistic ally and friend was Rodin. Born at Gournay, Carrière studied at the Beaux-Arts, Paris, and in the atelier of Cabanel. He made his debut at the Salon in 1876. From 1890, Eugène Carrière exhibited with the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts, and also with the Galerie Bernheim. Carrière also exhibited with the Secession artists in Munich and Berlin.
