The Wildlife Art & Illustration of Paul Jouve - Pete Beard

"In France Paul Jouve's reputation as a wildlife artist and illustrator is unassailable, and his images are considered to be highly collectible. How well known he is currently outside his country of birth I don't know, but I strongly suspect he will be new to many viewers of this channel.

He was among the earliest Europeans to deviate from the idea that images of wildlife should be as accurately representational as possible, and he followed in the arguably more personally expressive footprints left by the earlier oriental artists' depictions of animals, to considerable and highly memorable effect." from the video introduction
