Biography
Felix Edouard Vallotton (b.1865 d.1925) was a Swiss-French painter. Born in Switzerland Vallotton moved to Paris at sixteen. His fame grew in the 1890s when he created illustrations satirising the lives of the Bourgeois. For part of his career he was associated with the Nabis, a group of post-impressionist French artists. Vallottan developed his own style which used bold colours and stressed the flatness of the surface. This is particularly seen in his printmaking. Vallotton is credited with reviving the European woodcut tradition.
