Lucien Ott
1850-1927

Not a great deal of biographical information is known of the landscape painter and draughtsman Lucien Ott. Perhaps inspired by the work of Gauguin and the other artists then working at Pont-Aven, he made several visits to Brittany early in his artistic career, going there for the first time in 1889. A gifted draughtsman, Ott worked fluently in a variety of media, including pen, pastel, chalk and watercolor.
