Bio:
Gustave Moïse (French, 1879–1955) was born in Rouen, France, and studied at the École des Beaux-Arts de Rouen. After working in Rouen during the early part of his career, he became closely associated with Dieppe, where he lived and worked and where he died in 1955. His subjects included scenes of everyday life, cabarets and theatrical interiors, landscapes, beach scenes, horse racing, and views of the port and surrounding countryside of Dieppe. He exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français and the Salon d’Automne, and examples of his work are held in public collections in Dieppe, including the Château-Musée.
