| THE MASK SELLER by Zacharie Astruc |

| Roses négligemment jetées sur un vase by Zacharie Astruc |
I was unable to locate any of the paintings Zacharie Astruc showed in the first impressionist exhibition. LANDSCAPE WITH WAGON AND HAYSTACKS was painted a few years before the exhibition. ROSES CARELESSLY THROWN ON A VASE shows his style, which flagrantly avoids Salon rules.
He was also a sculptor as shown in the interesting statue THE MASK SELLER, now standing in the Luxembourg Gardens, Paris.
But his main claim to fame was as an art critic and many examples of his writing are on the internet. During the first impressionist exhibition he published daily glowing reports on the painters and their work in a Paris newspaper. This early publicity must have done wonders for attendance at the exhibition and the subsequent notoriety of the group.
