Art Supplier Ancien

If you are a fan of the Jardin du Luxembourg you'll likely pass DUBOIS enroute if you are a walker like me. I am certain there is a list somewhere of all the noted artists who have purchased materials there since it's inception in 1861. In the meantime you'll find it has most everything you need and the sales clerk was fluent in Anglais and even offered me a tissue due to my episode of spring time sneezing. You'll find more about Dubois http://www.dubois-paris.com/catalogue/bois/index.htm and can walk in and feel the brushes at 20, rue Soufflot 75005. 01.44.41.67.50
