Artist Biography
Paul Marny (1829-1914) was an Anglo-French painter born in Paris, although he spent at least fifty years of his long life in Belfast and Scarborough. He first worked as a decorator of porcelain for the Sèvres factory before moving to Belfast to work for a French architect. Marny then moved to Scarborough, where he taught Albert Strange and many other Scarborough-based artists. Marny was a member of the Ipswich Art Club and he also exhibited at the Royal Academy. Paintings by him are held in the collections of Scarborough Art Gallery, Usher Gallery, Williamson Art Gallery, and the Pannett Art Gallery.
