Born in Boulogne-sur-Mer in 1921, George Mathieu is a painter who found his way in the lyric abstraction which dissociated him from its contemporaries: spots, splashes, painting affixed directly of the tube on the support.

He did several stamps for the post office.

In addition, he is the creator of the coin of 10 FF which was struck from 1974 to 1987.
