Born in 1870, in Neuchâtel, Switzerland, Gustave POETZSCH is a painter who left behind a large number of paintings and drawings. Still little known some time ago, a sale from the back of his studio helped to shine a light on the artist.

He went to Paris to complete his artistic apprenticeship and entered the studio of Gustave Moreau (1826-1898), the same frequented by Matisse and the future Fauves. He was the husband of Marie-Louise Aulagne, a renowned milliner from Faubourg Saint-Honoré.

He painted portraits and landscapes including landscapes around Velay. The many stays of the artist in Brittany, in Normandy in Deauville where he stays, in the Arcachon basin or in Haute Loire where the family has a house, will inspire his works imprinted with gaiety and insouciance (like the many works on the beaches of Deauville).

From 1895, he exhibited in Paris at the Salon des Indépendants, the Salon des Artistes Français and the Salon de la Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts.

He is one of the painters who best embodies the Belle Époque, praising feminine beauty and its preparations, helped in this by his wife Marie-Louise.
