Georges Pineau was a student of Claud Monet. He lived and worked in Versailles, France, before and after serving in World War I. While attempting to lead his troops to safety, he was struck by a mustard gas canister. His breathing was affected, and he spent the rest of his life suffering the effects. He died quite young, leaving the works shown here.
