Armand Guillaumin was a founding member of the Impressionist group and a close friend of Paul Cézanne and Camille Pissarro. Despite his artistic talent, he worked for the Paris municipal government for years to support his painting practice, famously only devoting himself full-time to art after winning a 100,000-franc prize in the state lottery in 1891.
