Louis Dumoulin

Louis-Jules Dumoulin (Paris, 1860–1924) was a French artist and painter. He traveled in East Asia and was the founder of the Société Coloniale des Artistes Français in 1908.[1]

Dumoulin made his first major trip outside Europe in 1888 on the occasion of an official mission to Japan ordered by the Ministry of Education. In 1908 he co-founded the Colonial Society of French Artists and was its president until his death in 1924.
