Biography Leloir was the son, and pupil, of painter {{Interlanguage link multi|Auguste Leloir|fr}} and watercolorist Héloïse Suzanne Colin, daughter of painter Alexandre-Marie Colin. Leloir married Céline Bourdier, with whom he had a daughter, Suzanne Leloir, who married Philippe, the son of Pauline Savari in 1912. Leloir first exhibited his work at the Salon des artistes français, of which he became the secretary. With many other painters, he was a member of the Crozant School in the valleys of Creuse. Around the 1890s, Leloir and his students flooded the picture book market, inspired by photographs representing accurately costumes and attitudes of the past, much appreciated by bibliophiles. A prolific illustrator of books, especially for children, such as the Richelieu by {{Interlanguage link multi|Theodore Cahu|fr}}, of magazines and fans, he founded the "Société d'histoire du costume" in 1907. His brother, Alexandre-Louis Leloir, also an illustrator, was a well known painter. In 1884, Guy de Maupassant dedicated him the short story Idylle. Works Leloir realized some paintings including La Maison Fournaise (oil on wood) exposed in the musée Fournaise of the city of Chatou, but unfortunately stolen in 1999.[1] Publications - Bernardin de Saint-Pierre (Illustrations by Leloir), Paul et Virginie, Paris, Librairie artistique, H.
