As part of its research and promotion missions validated by the Musée de France label, the next temporary exhibition at the Hôtel-Dieu Museum, scheduled from June 28, 2021 to January 17, 2022, will focus on the painter and architect Georges Tardif. It will be entitled "Georges Tardif, Landscape Architect." A retrospective and biographical catalog will be published for this artist who has not had a publication since the exhibition at the Montmartre Museum in 1990. In 1880, Georges Tardif entered the École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs where he became friends with Jules Antoine3. He then entered the Académie de Charles Suisse. There he met Maximilien Luce and Léo Gausson. He was employed in the studio of the architect Albert Besnard to participate, among other things, in the drawings of the monographs of the church and abbey of Saint-Georges de Boscherville (Seine-Maritime) and Saint-Germer de Fly (Oise). He met Émile-Gustave Cavallo-Péduzzi in this studio. They frequented the evenings of the Chat Noir and the Théâtre-Libre where they met their artist friends: the engraver Frédéric Jacque4, the painters Henri-Gabriel Ibels, Hippolyte Petitjean, Augustin Grass-Mick, the cartoonist-humorist Henry de Saint-Alary and the sculptor Alexandre Charpentier.
In 1885, he entered the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris in the architecture department of Professor Eugène Train. At the same time, he attended classes at the studio of the painter Jean-Léon Gérôme. In 1887, 1895, and 1896, he participated as an architect in the Salon des Artistes Français. In 1890, he participated in the Lyon Exhibition of Fine Arts.
Georges Tardif spent his entire career at the Gas Company and painted over a hundred watercolors during his Sunday leisure time. He married in 1891. The painter Louis Hayet was one of the witnesses at the wedding. He came to live in Montmartre until the end of his life. From the beginning of the Dreyfus Affair, he rallied to Zola's ideas. He was among the first artists to sign the petition for Dreyfus's rehabilitation.
