Biography


Since childhood he started drawing frequently. Auguste Lemoine (1848-1909), a drawing teacher at the college of Saint-Malo from 1883 to 1903 inspired him to draw from nature and in colour. Under the direction of Auguste Lemoine, Malo-Renault experimented with etchings. After completing his Bachelor of Arts, Malo-Renault went on to study architecture in Paris as a Stéphane Pannemaker student at the École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs.

It was only after his marriage in 1897 with Honorine Tian (1871-1953), known as Nori Malo-Renault, a student of etcher Géry-Bichard, that Malo-Renault began his engraving career with the support of his wife for the development of color prints, in particular in Le serpent noir by Paul Adam.

Between 1903 and 1928 he participated in many exhibitions at the Salon of the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts, where he was a member from 1910. he is a representative of the art nouveau style with a Japanese influence.


Works


Work

Malo-Renault finds his inspiration in his native land, Saint-Malo and Brittany: landscapes and Bretons are the first subjects of his pastels and his color prints.

He specialized in color engraving, first in etching, in soft varnish, then in drypoint. In 1912, he took up wood engraving on the advice of Stéphane Pannemaker, but it was mainly afterwards that he adopted the process of wood with a penknife for the illustration of La Rapsode foraine and Le Pardon de Sainte-Anne ( 1920) based on this poem by Tristan Corbière.

On the occasion of the release in 1922 of Jardin de Bérénice by Maurice Barrès, he engraved on wood the print of the menu for the Cent bibliophiles, using four plates for the four colors.
