Guillaume Seignac neoclassicism
Guillaume Seignac (1870 - 1924). Working during the last half of the 19th century, Guillaume Seignac typifies the French academic style which was preached by the Salon and
more...l’Ecole des Beaux-Arts. He was living in Paris and became a frequent contributor to the Paris Salon and received a number of medals for the works he exhibited there. 19th century European and American society found great appeal in the romanticism of Seignac’s idealized figures and as more and more families wished to appear stylishly modern. less
