Adolphe (or Albert) Clary-Baroux is a French post-impressionist painter born in 1865, died in 1933. Initially a theater decorator, he then turned to landscape painting, particularly of the banks of the Seine. He participated in the Salon des Artistes Indépendants from 1902, in the Salon de la Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts until 1932, regularly in the Salon d'Automne of which he is a member and in the Salon des Tuileries in 1927, 1929 and 1930. Seduced by the art of Sisley, he began to paint in his style, before moving closer to the pictorial conception of Pissaro. Clary Baroux is a colorist who works in the impressionist manner.
