The life of Edmond Yarz  

Edmond Yarz (1845 - 1920), a 19th-century painter, is relatively unknown to the general public. He was born in Toulouse into a relatively well-off family.

He learns painting and drawing techniques at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Toulouse. It was there that he decided to produce landscape drawings and paintings.

He moves to Paris, where the art world is more prolific for him than in Toulouse, and settles in a studio on rue Montmartre with the painter Benjamin-Constant.

He exhibited canvases at the Salon almost every year, and his work was noticed by Appolinaire, who described one of his paintings as "trompe l'œil impressionism".

Like the Barbizon painters, he drew inspiration for his work not only from the landscapes of Ile de France, but also from his hometown.
