Framed oil on canvas depicting three children having lunch. Painting by Jeanne Champillou (1897-1978), painter, engraver and ceramist born on April 4, 1897 in Saint-Jean-le Blanc, southeast of Orléans. Born into a family of Orléanais winegrowers on her father's side and artisan carpenters on her mother's, she began practicing engraving in 1919. From her earliest creations, she showed a taste for intimate scenes. She was influenced by French realist and naturalist engravers such as Bonvin and Flameng. She drew her inspiration from scenes of everyday life in the countryside: markets, small craftsmen at work.
Her first exhibition took place in 1920, at Artistes Orléanais: she showed paintings, watercolors and engravings.
She exhibited regularly in Orléans and engraved over 400 plates in the course of her life.
In 1947, she took up ceramics and produced a number of architectural works, including the decoration of the Lamotte-Beuvron school, the Notre-Dame des Miracles church in Orléans, two chemins de croix in Flanders and four statues in the Gien church (listed in the Bénézit).
