His portrait groups, reminiscent of 17th-century Dutch guild portraits, depict literary and artistic persons of the time; his flower paintings were especially popular in England, thanks to James McNeill Whistler and John Everett Millais, who found patrons to support him. His later years were devoted to lithography.  Related Paintings of Henri Fantin-Latour :. | Glass, Silver Goblet and Cup of Champagne | Vase des roses | White Roses, Chrysanthemums in a Vase, Peaches and Grapes on a Table with a White Tablecloth | Still Life with Roses and Wine 6 | Golgotha(copy after Veronese) |
