Arthur midy was born in saint quentin in yveline.

At the same time, he will follow an artistic training at the académie julian in paris. He exhibited at the salon des artistes français from 1897 to 1928. It was at the age of 28 that he discovered le faouët, and that he was introduced to the genre scene and landscape, abandoning the subjects of history or biblical for which he was trained.
