Dagnan-Bouveret, P(ascal-)A(dolphe-)J(ean)

(b Paris, 7 Jan 1852; d Quincey, Haute-Saône, 3 July 1929). French painter. He refused to leave France when his father Bernard Dagnan moved to Brazil in 1868, and he remained with his maternal grandfather in Melun (nr Paris). Later he added the maternal surname Bouveret to his own in gratitude for his grandfather’s support, which enabled him to study in Paris.
