The tragic story of French naïve painter Séraphine Louis aka Séraphine de Senlis (1864-1942), a humble servant who becomes a gifted self-taught painter. Discovered by prominent critic and collector William Uhde, she came to prominence between the wars grouped with other naïve painters like Henri Rouseau only to descend into madness and obscurity with the onset of the Great Depression and World War II.
"Seraphine" explores the relationship between the painter and an art collector. To make ends meet, Seraphine works as a maid for Madame Duphot, who rents an apartment to Wilhelm Uhde, a German art critic with an interest in modern and primitive arts.
