Biography

(b Lagny, Normandy, France, 1882; d Lagny, 1969) French painter. Taught by his father, artist Antonio Cortes, Edouard Cortes began studying art at a very early age. At seventeen he began his formal education at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and in 1901 had his first exhibition at the Salon des Artistes Francais. Cortes is known for his paintings of street scenes and monuments in Paris; a theme he had already begun to focus on at the beginning of the 20th century. In the 1920s, Cortes turned his attention to country scenes, landscapes, interior settings and still lifes in his hometown of Lagny. He was a member and the first president of the Union des Beaux-Arts de Lagny and exhibited there from the late 1920s into the late 1930s. Cortes also exhibited frequently at the Salon d’Automne, Salon de la Societe Nationale de l’Horticulture, Salon des Independants and the Salon d’Hiver in Paris.
