A student of Fernand Cormon and Jules Adler, Jules René Hervé moved to Paris and began exhibiting at the Salon des Artistes Français in 1910, where he was awarded a silver medal in 1914 and a gold medal in 1925. Jules René Hervé then divided his life between Paris and his hometown, painting its humble and picturesque events with a light brush, expert in small, vivid bursts of gray or ochre, portraits of its austere society with its monotonous, subdued existence - But Jules René Hervé is equally adept at capturing the lively atmosphere of Parisian life and its monuments, or the dancers in the foyer of the Opéra - Delicate feelings emanate from his finely observed compositions - Appreciated by amateurs in France and abroad, Jules René Hervé devoted himself to his art throughout his life -Jules René Hervé is considered "the last of the Impressionists". violondingres.fr
