Georges-Jules-Auguste Cain (16 April 1856, Paris - 4 March 1919, Paris) was a French painter, illustrator and writer, who specialized in the history of Paris, its monuments and its theaters. == Biography == His grandfather, Pierre-Jules Mêne and his father, Auguste Cain were both animal sculptors. He studied with Alexandre Cabanel and Jean-Georges Vibert, but was most heavily influenced by Édouard Detaille. In 1878, he made his debut at the Salon with ''Fumeur de l'époque Louis XV'' (Smoker from the Time of Louis XV) and continued to exhibit there on a regular basis until 1900. He illustrated the ''Barber of Seville'' by Beaumarchais and several works by Honoré de Balzac, including ''La Cousine Bette'' and ''La Bourse''. His works may be seen in the Musée Baron Gérard in Bayeux, the Musée de Picardie in Amiens, and the Musée Carnavalet in Paris,〔Gérald Schurr, ''Les petits maîtres de la peinture, valeur de demain'', éditions de l'Amateur, 1976, Vol.III, pg.79 ISBN 2-85917-006-5〕 where he served as Curator from 1897 to 1914. His brother Henri was a famous librettist. A square in Le Marais, near the Musée Carnavalet, has been named in his honor.〔(ParisConnect: Square Georges-Cain. )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Georges Cain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
