Maximilien Luce (March 13, 1858 – February
6, 1941) was a France|French artist. A printmaker,
painter, and anarchist, Luce gained a modicum of
fame using the pointillist methods developed by
Georges-Pierre Seurat. He grew up in the working
class Montparnasse, and the breadth of his works
focus on blue-collar scenes and everyday struggles
and triumphs of the common man. Like Camille
Pissaro, Luce was active with anarchist groups in
Paris in the 1890s, and in 1894 served a brief
prison term. During World War One, Luce painted
war scenes, depicting soldiers struggling against
the horrors of the Great War. Luce died in Paris
in 1941.
