Pierre Cornu was born November 16, 1895 in Salon de Provence. In his adult life, financial troubles forced him to emigrate to Morocco for several years, where he began a new life and perfected his art. His artistic style is known for as an abundant use of vibrant colors, often resembling asian tapestries. When he came back to France, he settled in the region of Aix en Provence, where he lived for the rest of his life and continued to paint. He died in 1996.

His paintings are often honored in all the great Parisian salons. He exhibits regularly with René Auguste Chabaud and Seyssaud in Marseille.
