It was he who persuaded me to choose Pont-Aven as the place where I was demobilised in 1919. Through him too – a friend of Maître Correlleau – I met Ernest Correlleau on his return from captivity. A mutual friendship developed straight away and we immediately set up in the Lezaven studios (Paul Gauguin’s former studio), which Ernest Correlleau had purchased. …” Source: “Mauléon Autrefois”, Bernard Aumond and Xavier Maudet
