Armand Guillaumin was a key figure in the Impressionist movement and a close friend of Paul Cézanne and Camille Pissarro. Despite his artistic brilliance, he famously won the grand prize in the French national lottery in 1891, which allowed him to quit his job at the state railway and dedicate his life fully to painting.
