Did you know?
Armand Guillaumin was a key member of the Impressionist circle and a close friend of Paul Cézanne and Camille Pissarro. Despite his artistic contributions, he famously maintained a job with the Paris municipal department for years, only painting during his off-hours until a significant lottery win allowed him to dedicate his life entirely to his art in 1891.
