Art ran in the blood of Henri Fantin-Latour. His father actually was his first artistic teacher, teaching him how to draw at very young age.
In his later career, Fantin-Latour specialised in making lithographs. He was a great fan of the composer Richard Wagner and made lithographs to illustrate his music.
Today, one of Henri Fantin-Latour's paintings can sell for as much as 2 500 000 $.
