Jean 
            Faurege
        Jean 
          Faurege was born in 1932 in Paris, France, and graduated from the Ecole 
          Nationale des Metiers d'Arts of Paris in 1955. 
        
Like 
          all true Parisians he loves and respects his city. He skillfully uses 
          his talent as a soft Impressionist to depict accurately the boulevards 
          and the happy ambiance of the "Belle Epoque" of Paris in the 1900s. 
        
To 
          "Flaner"  (stroll) along "les Grands Boulevards", lines 
          with elegant shops and outdoor cafes, dressed in the latest fashion 
          - to see and be seen - was an important part of Parisian life. It is 
          this spirit that Jean Faurege captures in his paintings.
