Born in Vannes in 1866, Louis Marie Joseph Ridel trained in Paris under Gustave Moreau, Alfred de Richemont and Elie Delaunay. This symbolist painter befriended Edmond Aman-Jean, Edgar Maxence and Albert Besnard. He produced mainly portraits of women on canvas, painted views of his native Brittany, wall panels, engravings and medals.
He was a member of the Salon des Artistes Français in Paris from 1901, and also exhibited at the Salon des Tuileries. His work has been exhibited in Berlin, Ghent, Cairo, Venice, Düsseldorf, Amsterdam, Tokyo, Saint-Louis and Pittsburgh.
Louis Ridel was repeatedly decorated: in 1896 he received an honorable mention at the Salon des Artistes Français in Paris, in 1898 a third-class medal, in 1900 a second-class medal, and in 1909 he was made a Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur. During his lifetime, the artist received numerous official commissions for mural panels; for the Senate, the Ministry of Public Works and the Town Hall of the 12th arrondissement.
In 1937, the artist died in Paris at the age of 71.
The artist's works can be found in French museums in Nantes, Strasbourg and Pont-Aven, as well as internationally in Tokyo, Buenos Aires and Rio de Janeiro.
