André Villeboeuf

[2][3] French Writer Émile Brami has mentioned that Villeboeuf had been a part of the circle of friends, all from Montmartre who used to live a few hundred meters from each others.

This circle consisted of Gen Paul, Louis-Ferdinand Céline, René Fauchois, the sculpture Jean-Gabriel Daragnès, Marcel Aymé, Robert Le Vigan, Serge Perrault, apart from Villeboeuf.

[4] Villeboeuf mainly painted Paris (Le Sacré-Cœurseen from the artist's balcony), Brittany(Pardon de Pleyben), Creuse (where he met with Léon Detroy) and villages from Fresselines to Gargilesse-Dampierre, Saint-Tropez etc.. and Spain, in particular Andalusia (Procession of the penitents in Seville, numerous watercolors on the theme of bullfighting, lithograph Danse gypsy).

In 1925, Villeboeuf and his two friends André Dunoyer de Segonzac and Luc-Albert Moreau together bought the house of Charles Camoin and the renamed "Le Maquis".

He commented during Villeboeuf's lifetime, "His talent, so lively and spontaneous, will withstand the test of time and will showcase him among the painters of genuine quality".
