Gustave Sennelier, a chemist by trade, thoroughly researched the history and usage of pigments to develop a distinctive process for manufacturing oil colors. The process involved the formulation of precise methods for mixing tones, and for controlling opacity and transparency.
He opened the doors of the Maison Sennelier at 3 Quai Voltaire in 1887, grinding his own pigments in the back yard. The Parisian landmark remains unchanged to this day, facing the Louvre on the Left Bank, just around the corner from the École des Beaux Arts.
The passing of more than a century has seen artists with names like Cézanne, Gauguin, Monet, Bonnard, Soutine, Picasso, Modigliani, Kandinsky, Chagall, and Dali pass through its doors.
The essential factor in the history of Sennelier is a passion for color, embodied in the choice of pigments used in Sennelier color ranges. Sennelier circles the globe to find classic and rare pigments that possess qualities that are both beautiful and unique.
Sennelier can provide the artist with whatever materials are needed, no matter how esoteric or historic they may be. Sennelier has been a resource for artists since the era of the Impressionists, and that tradition continues today for all customers of the Maison Sennelier.

Sennelier Artists' Oil Paints
The descendants of Gustave Sennelier still create their extraordinarily luscious colors from the finest hand-ground pigments combined with pure,
first-press non-yellowing safflower oils. They produce an outstanding collection of oils distinguished by a "satin" finish and creamy texture. The paints still entrance artists, just as they did when pioneers such as Paul Cézanne and Camille Pissaro first used them.
