After his studies at the Academy for Fine Arts in Montpellier, Albert Dubout moved to Paris in 1924, where he began making illustrations for several magazines and journals, like Satirix. His humorous drawings contained funny characters in strange situations, and have been successful and popular throughout his entire career. Although Dubout made lithographic prints and advertising illustrations, his prominent occupation was illustrating books, such as poetry by Villon, and novels by Rabelais, Boileau, Molière and Balzac.
