Note: Paul Lucien Maze was an Anglo-French painter. He is often known as “The last of the Post Impressionists" and was one of the great artists of his generation. His mediums included oil and watercolour although he was especially acclaimed for his pastels. Maze’s paintings include French maritime scenes, busy New York City scenes and the English countryside as well as Still Life. During the First World War, Maze met Winston Churchill in the trenches and their shared love of painting led to a lifelong friendship. Maze became Churchill's artistic mentor, encouraging him to develop his drawing and painting techniques.
