[edit] Biography

Charles Angrand born in Criquetot-sur-Ouville in Normandy.

He practiced pointillism early on, but as a friend of Georges-Pierre Seurat and Paul Signac he was influenced by neo-Impressionism and strong contrasts and pure hues factored into his later work. One of the founders of the Salon des Indépendants, he also taught at the Lycée Chaptal in Paris. He died in Rouen.
