At Home With the Famous Dead of Montmarte Cemetery

This quiz has received an Editor's Award for excellent content. Only the most unique and well written quizzes are
eligible for this award.
This quiz concludes my trio of quizzes about the famous folk who are interred in one of three different Parisian cemeteries - the fame of their inabitants rendering them popular tourist destinations for people visiting Paris. The Montmartre Cemetery (Le Cimetiere de Montmartre) was established the latest of the three in 1825. It is also the smallest of the three cemeteries - somewhat over 20% the size of Pere Lachaise Cemetery and approximately 40% of the size of the Montparnasse Cemetery.
The famous dead who we will be visiting at the Montmartre Cemetery were primarily in the creative arts - writers, artists, and composers. Emile Zola was originally interred here when he died in 1902; however, his remains were removed to the Pantheon in 1908. Although other European nations are represented among the dead, these famous folk are primarily French and I discovered no famous dead Americans interred at the Montmartre Cemetery. It is your goal to select the famous deceased resident of the Montmartre Cemetery from the biographical information provided in each question. The image selected for this quiz is at the grave site of the correct answer to question 3.
