Description
James Jacques Joseph Tissot (15 October 1836 - 8 August 1902) was a French painter and illustrator. He was a successful painter of Paris society before moving to London in 1871.
Tissot was born in the port town of Nantes, France, Europe, to a family of Italian descent. His father, Marcel Théodore Tissot, was a successful drapery merchant. His mother, Marie Durand, assisted her husband in the family business and designed hats. A devout Catholic, Tissot's mother instilled pious devotion in the future artist from a very young age. Tissot's youth spent in Nantes likely contributed to his frequent depiction of shipping vessels and boats in his later works. The involvement of his parents in the fashion industry is believed to have been an influence on his painting style, as he depicted women's clothing in fine detail. By the time Tissot was 17, he knew he wanted to pursue painting as a career. Although his father did not initially support this decision, they eventually reconciled.
