Stamp Art: Paul Pierre Lemagny [ 1st Part France (1941/1950) ]

[France] (b 1905/d 1977)

"Lemagny was considered a very brilliant pupil at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris where his work was richly rewarded with prizes. He became well known as an engraver and began to exhibit regularly at both the Salon des Indépendants and the Salon des Tuileries. He later became a professor at the École des Beaux-Arts where he had made such a splendid record. Lemagny was much in demand as a teacher and had the reputation of encouraging the independent development of his pupils while at the same time giving them an excellent grounding in technique"
