Antoine Auguste Adrien Henri Tanoux (18 October 1865, Marseille – 29 July 1923, Paris) was a French painter.

Biography

He began his studies in 1878 at the École supérieure d'art et de design Marseille-Méditerranée [fr].[1] After graduating there, in 1886, he enrolled at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts in Paris, where he became a student of Léon Bonnat.[2]

During this time, he presented some works at the Salon. He would exhibit there regularly throughout his life. In 1889, he received an honorable mention at the Exposition Universelle.[3]

He was initially attracted to painting scenes in the outlying suburbs but, after receiving a travel grant from the Conseil supérieur des Beaux-Arts in 1895, he turned to genre scenes, portraits and Orientalist works; becoming especially well known for his nudes. In 1905, he was elected a member of the Société des artistes français.[4]

A major retrospective of his work was held in 1924.[5]

His works may be seen at the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Chambéry, Musée de Grenoble, Musée des Beaux-Arts de Marseille, Musée Cantini, Musée de la Faïence et des Beaux-Arts, Musée des Beaux-Arts de Nice and the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Rouen, among others.
