Lucien Mainssieux (1885 - 1958) was active/lived in United States, France.  Lucien Mainssieux is known for Fauve land-cityscape, figure, still life, genre painting.

Lucien Mainssieux is a painter and French artist, born on August 4, 1885 and died on July 8, 1958 in Voiron, a small town near Grenoble. Orphaned at the age of 19 months, he had tuberculosis of the pelvic bones (or coxalgia). He spent his first twelve years bedridden and limped all his life.

In Grenoble, François Joseph Girot was his first master and Jules Flandrin his first significant influence. He arrived in Paris in 1905, the year of the scandal of the Fauve painters to work with Jean-Paul Laurens. At the Julian Academy, he met Dunoyer de Segonzac, who became a faithful friend., and in Paris, he frequently saw Max Weber, meeting thanks to him Picasso and also Matisse, Marquet, Jacqueline Marval and Rouault.

In a time of Cubism, his only absolute model was Cézanne. Mainssieux undertook numerous trips during his life, especially throughout France. Even though he lived in Paris, he returned to Voiron in the summer, where he could paint landscapes with greater ease.
