François was trained by his father, the painter Emile Lafon (1817-1886). He then went on in 1875 to exihibit in the Salon. In 1890 he was invited to join the ranks of La Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts.
His typical subject matters were mythological, religious and oriental scenes, as well as young nymphs and female portraiture.
This little oil sketch sums up what the master François Lafon can and should be - A delicious dream-like rendering of a slender female figure seated with a young child in a mysterious mythological setting.
