His portrait groups, reminiscent of 17th-century Dutch guild portraits, depict literary and artistic persons of the time; his flower paintings were especially popular in England, thanks to James McNeill Whistler and John Everett Millais, who found patrons to support him. His later years were devoted to lithography.  Related Paintings of Henri Fantin-Latour :. | Violettes et azalees | Young Woman under a Tree at Sunset, Called | Kersenbloesem en violen. | Edouard Manet, | shepherd of the week |
