1Robert Chailloux was a French still life painter. Born on April 23, 1913 in Paris, France, he went on to study at the École des Arts Décoratifs; in his initial career he painted in watercolours, especially elegant architectural studies.  He was persuaded by his tutors to concentrate on still-life painting, and it was in this field that he made his name. 

His oeuvre bears a systematic approach, wherein vases, fruits, flowers, and silverware appear perched atop a wooden table, rendered in the Dutch Vanitas style and set against an eroding stucco wall. In his later years, however, he deviated from his earlier compositions, including a greater variety of objects such as figurines, musical instruments, and accoutrement in a cooler, more vibrant colour scheme.

He exhibited regularly before his death in 2006, including at the Hermitage in Leningrad and the Pushkin in Moscow in 1975. Chailloux has won many prestigious prizes and awards,  including Gold Medals at the Salon des Artistes Français, the Salon de L'Art Libre and the Salon Violet; the Prix du Comite at the Salon D'Hiver. Several of Chailloux's paintings were acquired by the City of Paris and can be viewed at the Museum of the Ile-de-France and the Museum of Fine Arts, also known as the Petit Palais, Paris.
