George Petetin (1920-2012) French, Oil on Canvas. Signed in the lower right. Georges Petetin was raised in Saint-Lupicin in the Jura region of France by his parents (Gaston Petetin and Marie Louise LeGuay) and his grandparents (Edmond and Valentine Leguay). He spent much of his youth living with his grandparents in Septmoncel in the Haut-Jura region. It was from them that he developed his taste for wide open spaces and a love of nature. In his adolescence, his parents moved to Besancon. He enrolled in the Ecole des Beaux-Arts of Besancon in 1934 and studied there until 1936. He was awarded several prizes for the art and sculpture there. One of these prizes was a scholarship to continue his art studies in Paris. Petetin studied with Émile Bernard[1] who noticed his talent in 1934, and took him as a student, becoming his master teacher from 1937 to 1941, introducing him to many celebrated artists.
