Maximilien luce

Maximilien Luce was a productive French artist, known for his paintings, illustrations, engravings, and graphic art, and as well for his anarchist believes. Starting as an engraver, Luce then concentrated on painting, first as an Impressionist, then as a Pointillist, and finally returning to Impressionism. Luce depicted a various range of subjects in his works over a long career. He most frequently created landscapes, but his other works include portraits, still lifes, domestic scenes, such as bathers, and images of welders, rolling mill operators, and other laborers. Starting near the early part of the twentieth century, his identification with the Neo-impressionists began to disappear, as he became less active politically, and his artistic style shifted from Neo-impressionism, and he resumed painting in an Impressionist manner.
