. . . . "Diane Esmond (16 April 1910 - 27 May 1981) was a French painter whose main works were in the tradition of Post-Impressionism. She worked in or near Paris for the major part of her artistic career. Before World War II, she exhibited her figural paintings (circus and caf\u00E9 scenes) in group shows in Paris. She spent the war years in New York, returning to Paris in the mid-1950s and extending her subject matter to include still lifes, cityscapes, and landscapes that were shown in solo exhibitions in New York and various European cities. At the culmination of her career her work evolved toward the abstract evocation of tropical forests. She also designed sets and costumes for theatrical productions."@en . . . . . . . . . .
