Juliette Roche (1884–1980), also known as Juliette Roche Gleizes, was a French painter and writer who associated with members of the Cubist and Dada movements.

Life

She was born in 1884 to a wealthy Parisian family. Her father, Jules Roche, was a prominent member of both the French government and avant-garde art world. Other strong connections to the art world were manifested in her relationships with her godmother, Élisabeth, Countess Greffulhe, and her father's godson, Jean Cocteau.[1] She married Albert Gleizes, a cubist painter and writer, in September 1915.[2]

Education

Juliette studied painting at Académie Ranson in Paris. This was where she was introduced to the artistic style of Les Nabis.[1][3]
