James Tissot was a French painter, illustrator, and caricaturist known for his genre paintings depicting European high society during the Belle Époque and Victorian England. He incorporated elements of realism, early Impressionism, and academic art into his work, exploring subjects such as medieval, biblical, and Japoniste themes. Tissot served in the Franco-Prussian War before moving to London, where he achieved success as an artist. He had close ties to the Impressionist movement and received the French Legion of Honor in 1894.
