Roger Bissière (22 September 1886 – 2 December 1964) was a French artist. He designed stained glass windows for Metz cathedral and several other churches.

Roger Bissière was born 22 September 1886 in Villeréal, Lot-et-Garonne.[1][2] In 1901 the family moved to Bordeaux. His mother, Elisabeth Chastaignol, died 25 April 1902. In 1904 his father, Fernand Bissière, did not allow him to enter art school. Roger then travelled to Algeria. When he returned in 1905, he enrolled at the école des Beaux- Arts de Bordeaux where he studied with Paul François Quinsac until 1909. From September 1910 he studied with Gabriel Ferrier at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris.[2]
He married Catherine Lucie Lotte (nicknamed Mousse), 23 January 1919. Their son Marc-Antoine was born 15 July 1925.[3]
After he realised his eyesight was deteriorating he was diagnosed with glaucoma in 1939. By 1950 his peripheral vision was severely affected and he underwent surgery. This stopped him from going blind but did not improve his eyesight, and he complained his eyes tired more quickly when he was painting.[6]
Roger Bissière died 2 December 1964 in Boissièrette, Lot.[1]
Legacy
Rue Roger-Bissière (fr) in Paris is named in his honour.[7]
Forgeries
Between 1985 and 1995 John Myatt produced a number of fake Roger Bissière paintings for John Drewe, a purveyor of forged art.[8]
