  • Biography

    Ferdinand Jules Albert Gosselin (1862-?)

    He was born in Paris, France in 1862 and his first formal education was at the Ecole des Beaux- Arts with Jules Lefebvre. It was during this period of academic training that Albert became interested in the plein-aire movement of painting. Albert enrolled in the class of Professor Louis Hector Le Roux (1829-1900). During this time Gosselin began painting in the Fountainbleau Forest just out side of Paris. He was introduced to Henri Joseph Harpignies (1818-1916) whose influence changed his work forever. He would go on to meet French Impressionist Jean-Baptiste-Armand Guillaumin (1841-1927), who would introduce Albert to other Impressionist painters.
