Louis Borgex was born in Fontaine-St-Martin in the Rhone in 1873. He studied at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Lyon and later in Paris. He exhibited in the Lyon Salon from 1895 and in the Paris Salon from 1898. His atmospheric, post-Impressionist works were in great demand in the Parisian art world and new works were eagerly awaited. He left no trace in the art world after 1920 and it is rare to find a pair of his very best post-Impressionist paintings in almost perfect condition.
