Rene R. Bouché was born on 1906 in Prague, Czech Republic and after traveling much during his youth, he quickly developed his talent in art. The time was 1939 when Bouché could finally convince Vogue to give him an opportunity and it was then that his work appeared in English and French issues. After being held prisoner of the World War II, Rene fled to New York where he commenced his career with the American Vogue. Not to say, by 1963, Bouché was the last of the old school illustrators employed for Vogue. View some of his illustrations and portraits below.
