Paul Jouve

(French, 1880–1973)

Paul Jouve was a French animalier artist known for his anatomically detailed depictions of wildlife. An early utilizer of photography as a painting aid, the artist closely studied the movements and muscular structure of his subjects. Especially fond of big cats, Jouve’s Panther Noire series of works are among his most famous. Born on March 16, 1878 in Bourron-Marlotte, France, Jouve's early artistic passion was encouraged by his father Auguste, who enrolled him at the École des Arts Décoratifs in 1900. His interest in animals developed out of frequent visits to veterinary schools and the Muséum National d’Historie Naturelle in Paris as an art student. In 1921, following the reception of a travel grant from the French Indo-Chinese government, Jouve travelled to Egypt and Vietnam where he made studies of elephants and other native wildlife. His new exotic works gained him more recognition back in France, including an honorary membership into the Académie des Beaux Arts. The artist died at age 95 on May 13, 1973 in Paris, France.
