Jean Launois
Jean Launois (November 22, 1898 – November 22, 1942) was a French artist.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Jean Launois (French, 1898 - 1942) )〕 Born in Les Sables-d'Olonne in Vendée, Launois demonstrated a gift and passion for drawing. His parents encouraged him, but his formal training was limited to working with Charles Milcendeau and later with Auguste Lepère. He had a short stint at the Ecole Julian in Paris. Launois did many sketches, drawings, and paintings during and after World War I.
== World War I ==
The first World War broke out in 1914. On December 15, 1916, Launois enlisted in the mounted artillery rather than waiting for his “age class” to be inducted. Documentation is scarce on his military service, but he did see action on the Western Front during the winter, spring, and summer of 1917. In late December 1917, his division was sent to the Eastern Front (Italy) where he again saw action. During this time, Launois created many sketches of and studies of French soldiers.
Even before demobilization in late 1918, Launois returned to his family’s home in Tour on leave. His father took him to Paris and introduced him to the assistant curator of the Luxembourg Palace Museum. Launois showed him his portfolio of drawings he had done during his military service. The Curator of the Museum, Léonce Bénédite, received permission from the Undersecretary of Arts to purchase 12 of Launois’ drawings for 500 French francs. Also in Tour, Launois did a portrait of Anatole France that was well-received, widely distributed and published in ''L’Illustration''.
