Biography.
Frank Burty Haviland (or simply Frank Burty or Frank Haviland) was the grandson of Philippe Burty (1830-1890), art collector and critic who coined the term "japonisme". Philippe's daughter Madeline Burty married Charles Haviland, owner of the porcelain company "Haviland and
Horta de Ebro". In 1910, Frank Burty Haviland went to the South of France with Manolo and De Séverac, and he bought a monastery in Céret, in the French Pyrenees, which became the center of the so-called School of Céret until 1914. It included some of the most important painters of the time, with Pablo Picasso, Juan Gris, Georges Braque, Max Jacob and Auguste Herbin. Burty Haviland married Joséphine Laporta, a girl from Céret, in 1914.
