Hubert Damon was a French painter born in Blois in the Loire Valley, whose work reflects a lifelong engagement with colour, gesture and expressive imagery. He was associated with influential French artist groups such as the Salon d’Automne and the Independents, placing him in the company of some of France’s most celebrated modern artists.

Damon’s paintings span still lifes, floral compositions and dynamic scenes including horses and figures, often executed with bold brushwork and a lively sense of movement. Over the decades, he held numerous solo and group exhibitions in France and internationally, including in the United States, Europe, Taiwan and Japan, building a reputation for work that is both approachable and rich with painterly energy.

His art has appeared at auction and continues to be collected and appreciated for its vibrancy and distinctive voice in 20th-century French painting.
