Francis Saint-Genies (de) French | 1925 - 2018 Baron Francis de LASSUS SAINT-GENIÈS is a French painter, lithographer, engraver and illustrator born in 1925 in Val André, Brittany.
He studied painting at the Jullian Academy.
Like Alain Bonnefoit, Saint-Geniès made women his favorite subject. But he transforms her, elevates her in a fantastic way, using ancient references and extraordinary animals to give her women dreamlike attributes, bird women, stone women, cat women, etc.
He died in Versailles in October 2018. He was the great-grandson of composer Charles Gounod
