Jacques Josephs Tissot was born in 1836 in Nantes, France, to a prosperous merchant family of devout Catholics. In around 1856, he travelled to Paris to commence his brief artistic training at the prestigious École des Beaux-Arts. At this time, he crossed paths with artists including James McNeil Whistler, Edgar Degas and Eduard Manet, who became his friends and exerted a lasting influence on his work.
