His mother, who, after divorcing, became Henri Barbusse's secretary, and later Cécile Sorel's, introduced him to Théophile Steinlen. He was a student of Louis Anquetin, and a biographical note published in 1932 during an exhibition of the School of Paris in Dallas (Texas) also mentions him as a student of Fernand Cormon at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRené Thomsen, mobilized during the First World War in 1917, continued to draw and paint \"Soldier Scenes.\" A collection of these drawings was for a long time part of the collection of the painter and sculptor Fernand Belmonte, who donated them to the town hall of Méry-sur-Marne, where they are kept today. Another theme Thomsen tackled at the same time was that of \"Girls of Joy.\" In 1919, a period of great material precarity when he knew Maurice Loutreuil, Manuel Ortiz de Zarate, Jules Pascin, and Amedeo Modigliani, he discovered the Académie Colarossi with Chaïm Soutine and Isaac Dobrinsky.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-description translated-content\" lang=\"en\"\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003eA member of the Salon d'Automne in 1921, he received encouragement from Louis Vauxcelles, Élie Faure, and Joachim Gasquet.

René Thomsen also wrote: in 1968, he published a study on Édouard Manet.\u003cbr\u003eRené Thomsen died on July 28, 1976, a few days after the Versailles town hall honored him with the city's painting medal on the occasion of his seventy-ninth birthday.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e********\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;
