Jean Béraud
Jean Béraud (1849–1935) is the most famous painter of the Parisian scene during the Belle Epoque. He was a friend of Marcel Proust and a contemporary of Manet and Gustave Caillebotte.
His best-known paintings depict the animation on the streets of the French capital where the elegant bourgeoisie cross paths with the working class or show the luxurious decor of the literary salons of the time.
There are works by Béraud in the collections of the Musée Carnavalet and the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and the Metropolitan Museum in New York.
