Early life
Anglade was born on May 9, 1876 in Bordeaux, France, the son of Charles Vincent. He added his mother’s surname, Anglade, to his father’s to distinguish himself from his brother, the poster designer René Vincent.[1] Vincent-Anglade was a pupil of Gustave Moreau, Fernand Corom and Francois Flameng at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, and also Amable Pinta.[1]
Professional life
He exhibited in Paris and regularly appeared at the usual exhibitions, especially the Salon des Artistes Français, where he was awarded a distinction in 1903.[1] A year later, one of his nude studies was thought to be "slightly violent and acerbic".[2] The French journal La Revue described him in 1915 as "one of our best artists of the pencil".[3]
Early in his career, Vincent-Anglade became a fashionable portrait painter, mainly of intimate paintings of women.[4] He was a regular at greyhound and horse races and was an enthusiast of big game hunting. He was also valued as an animal painter.[1]
Death
Vincent-Anglade died on January 25, 1956.[1]
