Biography: French Impressionist painter Elisse Maclet was born the son of a peasant gardener, and was taught to paint by the sexton of his parish church. After arriving in Paris, he gained acclaim with his colorful landscapes and a patron eventually encouraged him to paint in the South of France. Maclet enjoyed acclaim during his lifetime but also suffered from a mental illness that took a toll on his career. He was honored with a retrospective in 1957 in Paris, shortly before his death.
