1933 Bernard Buffet (France, 1928-1999) "Toreador", Plate 22 from Bernard Buffet's lithographs 1952-1966, Fernand Mourlot, Bernard Buffet 1928-1999 One of the representative figurative painters of late 20th-century France, his style, characterized by cool depictions with sharp, black lines, originated from the anxiety and sense of emptiness immediately after World War II, and resonated with Sartre's existentialism and Camus's philosophy of the absurd, becoming a sensation. At the age of 20, he won the Critics' Prize. While abstract painting became the mainstream, Buffet, a popular artist, was criticized but persisted in his own path. In recent years, his work has been re-evaluated, with a full-scale retrospective exhibition held at the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris.
