Caudebec-en-Caux – The Artists – Thorigny, Felix

This page forms part of a series of pages dedicated to the many artists who worked in Caudebec-en-Caux. A full list of all the artists with a link to their works can be found at the bottom of this page.

NOTE: Caudebec-en-Caux has recently merged (2016) with other towns nearby and is now called “Rives-en-Seine“. However, since the artists called the town by its original name in their paintings, we will continue to refer to the place by its old name.

NOTE: To our knowledge, Thorigny did not work in Caudebec-en-Caux itself, but instead worked in nearby Saint-Aubin-de-Cretot.
