Biography
Melle Lebacq 1926

A Post-Impressionist and Impressionist painter, Lebacq was alternately a watercolourist, pastellist and portrait, landscape and still life painter. He also painted church interiors (stained-glass windows and paintings). Certain works as "Lumière d'été à Cagnes-sur-Mer" or "Le Repos en Terrasse" are impressionist. Initially self-taught, he first exhibited while a soldier during World War I. After the war he enrolled as a student at the Académie Julian at Paris in 1920, and thereafter worked mainly in France.[3][4]

gollark: We have enough for 70 years of current production available, and the many, many ways to get more or use existing stuff more efficiently have just been ignored because they aren't needed now.
gollark: Uranium is plentiful!
gollark: Subsidies, maybe, or at least taxes on carbon-y fuel stuff.
