Jean-Louis PAGUENAUD (1876–1952) Portrait of an Algerian Man (probably in Touggourt); Woman Wearing a Headdress Two oil paintings, the first on panel, the other on hardboard Height: 31.5 and 29.5 cm; Width: 18.5 and 24.5 cm A native of the Limousin region but raised primarily in Algeria, Jean-Louis PAGUENAUD (1876–1952) trained at the École des Arts Décoratifs in Limoges and at the Académie Julian, where he is said to have been a student of Bouguereau. Throughout his life, he maintained a passion for travel and sunny climes: the Basque Country, Spain, Asia, the Caribbean, Africa, North Africa, Polynesia, and more. In 1922, he was appointed official painter to the Navy. Paul Valéry nicknamed him “The Admiral of Painters, the Painter of Admirals.” The Musée de la Marine houses several works by this brilliant colorist.
