Jean Commère was a renowned French painter, watercolorist, draughtsman and illustrator, born in Paris on April 5, 1920. He died in Angers, France, on October 22, 1986.
Commère began his artistic training at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris in 1940, after first studying at the École des Beaux-Arts in Angers from 1936.
His career as a painter took off in 1945, and he gained significant recognition in 1952 when he won the Grand Prix Othon-Friesz .
Commère's work encompasses a variety of techniques, including oil painting, watercolor and illustration. He is known for his landscapes, still lifes and depictions of human figures. His painting "Bord de Loire" is an example of his work in oil on canvas, demonstrating his talent for capturing natural scenes.
In 1954, Commère moved to Le Plessis-Feu-Aussoux, where he spent the last thirty years of his life. After the death of his wife in 1986, he returned to Angers, where he tragically committed suicide shortly afterwards.
