Henri Vincent-Anglade was an acclaimed French portrait painter and advertising illustrator.
He was born in Bordeaux on 9 May 1876, the son of Charles Vincent. His mother’s surname was Anglade and so he added this to his name to distinguish himself from his brother, who was the poster designer René Vincent. He became a pupil of at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and studied under Gustav Moreau and others.
In the early part of his career Vincent-Anglade became a fashionable portrait painter and specialised in intimate paintings of women. He was sought after for his sensuous use of light and tone to convey delicate and nuanced emotions. He exhibited his works at the Salon in Paris and all the regular exhibitions. In 1915 the French journal La Revue described him as “one of the best artists of the pencil”.
Vincent-Anglade was a sociable man, who liked to spend time his leisure time at greyhound and horse races. He became recognised as a skilled painter of animals (as well as women) and was particularly adept at capturing the spirit of their movement, well before photography was able to do this.
He was a very forward- looking man, keen to embrace the emerging twentieth century, and he produced many humorous works which were published in the major magazines of the time. He was also part of the advertising industry in the early days of the motorcar, producing illustrations for Peugeot and later for other brands too.
He died on 25 January 1956, aged 79, leaving a wife and two sons.

This exquisite oil on canvas painting, La Muse (1937), is a masterful work by the French artist Henri Vincent-Anglade (1876–1956). The composition features a nude female figure in a seated, contemplative pose, rendered with rich, expressive brushstrokes and a warm, luminous palette. The model’s softly illuminated skin contrasts beautifully with the darker, impressionistic background, evoking an intimate and introspective atmosphere. Her short, bobbed hairstyle would have been very risqué at the time.
The painting is signed and dated in the upper right corner, confirming its authenticity and historical significance. La Muse stands as a testament to early 20th-century French academic and impressionist traditions, making it a valuable addition to collections of nude portraiture, figurative art, and European modernist works.

Cancellations and Returns
Last updated: 24th March 2025
We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.
However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.
To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.
Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.
Can I cancel an order?
There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.
If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.
Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.
Can I return an order?
We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.
The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).
You can return your order if...
It isn't what you expected
If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.
You change your mind
If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.
It's damaged in transit
In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.
If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.
What can't I return?
Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.
Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.
Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
I'm eligible for a return. Now what?
To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.
How will I receive my refund?
Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.
All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
