Albert Lebourg painted landscapes with the luminous clarity of Impressionism, working across France, North Africa, and beyond. Born in Normandy in 1849, he studied at Rouen's École des Beaux-Arts before teaching in Algiers, where he met Jean Seignemartin and refined his technique. He exhibited in the Fourth Impressionist Exhibition of 1879 alongside Monet and Degas, showing thirty works from his Algerian period. For nearly fifty years he painted the Seine, Auvergne, and the French countryside with prolific energy—over 2,000 works recorded in his lifetime.
