Biography

French painter Robert Fernier was a distant cousin of Gustave Courbet, one of the main painters of the 19th century, and later founded the museum in his honor in Ornans. Fernier mainly painted snow landscapes and traveled to the French African colonies on an extensive tour in 1949, which ended in Polynesia, where he spent the years 1962-65. There, he painted landscapes and portraits of the people of Africa and Oceania. Back in France, he devoted himself again to the Jura nature Jura, now dazzled tropical bright colors.
