Biography:
Leon Bonnat was born in France but lived in Madrid from 1846 to 1853. As a result, his early paintings were influenced by the Spanish art of that period. Around 1870, he turned to portraiture and was praised for his realistic depiction of his sitters. His talents earned him a considerable fortune and allowed him to amass a large collection and valuable art collection that was later donated to his home city of Bayonne. Bonnat was also the teacher of famous artists such as Georges Braque and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec.
