Alfred Latour

Alfred Latour’s career began in Paris during the nineteen-tens. All was founded on an early love of painting, never revoked, a talent for engraving that he was to extend to heights of virtuosity rarely matched by anyone, and — to complete the account of his natural abilities — a facility for watercolour that would earn him the admiration of critics and collectors. Today, Latour’s works are to be found in the Pompidou Centre, the British Museum, Cantini Museum and many other prestigious institutions.
