- Pierre Bonnard
- Walter Crane
- Alfons Mucha
- Henri Toulouse-Lautrec

- Paul Cézanne in Chez le Père Lathuile (1879) and Chaise, bouteille et pommes (1906)

Famous quotes containing the word art:
“Called as partners in Christ’s service,
Called to ministries of grace,
We respond with deep commitment
Fresh new lines of faith to trace.
May we learn the art of sharing,
Side by side and friend with friend,
Equal partners in our caring
To fulfill God’s chosen end.”
—Jane Parker Huber (b. 1926)
“Sweet Benjamin, since thou art young,
And hast not yet the use of tongue,
Make it thy slave, while thou art free;
Imprison it, lest it do thee.”
—John Hoskyns (1566–1638)
