Jules-Ferdinand Medard

1855 – 1925

French painter, specialised in floral still-life. His still-lifes were often arranged formally in a vase, but also sometimes scattered more casually across a tabletop. A pupil of Jean Marie Reigner (1815-1886) at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts of Lyon in 1871, he exhibited his works there at the Salon des Printemps from 1875, and then from 1878 at the Paris Salon. He won acclaim for his works in his lifetime and had a number of pupils.
