Meeting the Painters, from the Renaissance to the 19th Century

This history breathes a love of art!

In the guise of a guide, at times an art critic and at times a therapist, François Maret sets out to meet the great names of painting. An outstanding teacher, he lays down the landmarks of the main artistic movements and currents: context, timelines and major figures.

A talented illustrator, he embodies more than 50 painters and reproduces their greatest paintings, from the Renaissance to the 19th century. Above all, as someone madly in love with art, he stages the artists at the same time as he shows their creative gesture.

François Maret

François Maret teaches visual arts and art history at the cantonal secondary school of La Planta, Switzerland.
