Jacoulet's palette is terrible and some of his work borders on kitsch in its ahistoricism - e.g., Vent Du Nord, the picture accompanying the story, dated 1953; but his sense of the drapery of clothing isn't bad, and his facial studies are good. I may go to the museum to see if the coloring improves when viewing the originals. Interesting story.

His story is the reverse of the French impressionists, who were influenced by Japanese woodblock prints that came to Paris at the end of the 19th century as the Yonhap story says. He's a bit like Gauguin. The quality of the prints look a little erratic but most of them are really accomplished. I didn’t know about Jacoulet, interesting guy.
