Edward Antoon Portielje (8 February 1861, Antwerp – 18 December 1949, Antwerp) was a Belgian genre painter.
He was born to the painter Jan Portielje and his wife Eulalie (née Lemaire, 1828–1903). His older brother, Gerard, was also a genre painter.
His first art lessons came from his father. Then he attended the Royal Atheneum and, from 1873, took after-school classes at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts with Edward Dujardin. From 1877 to 1881, he was a full-time student at the Academy under the tutelage of Polydore Beaufaux, Charles Verlat and Nicaise de Keyser.
He was married twice, first to Jeanne Marie Cochet and then, in 1888, to Rosa Hermans, with whom he had a son. During World War I he lived in Brussels, returning to Antwerp in 1919.
For a short time, style and choice of subject matter ran parallel to those of his brother Gerard. But Edward Portielje developed his own touch with fine and precise work and use of his own themes. He found his inspiration mainly in fishing circles in Zeeland. They are traditional inn scenes or living rooms enlivened with one, two, four or even more characters. They are often domestic scenes with mothers with children, lacemakers, women chatting coffee around a table, lovers, etc., all in the local costumes that were still common at the time. In addition to these genre paintings, he also painted marines. All in all, a rather stereotypical body of work. A tight, realistic touch gradually gave way to looser brushwork and a moderately impressionistic approach. He cleverly played with the lighting effects of the daylight that enters the rooms through open or half-closed windows.
Portielje rarely collaborated with other artists. For the sale of his paintings, he relied on the intervention of the art dealers Albert D'Huyvetter and then mainly on Guillaume Campo. Both before and after the First World War they had a contract. During the interwar period, this applied to the entire production for which Campo was the only representative, worldwide.
In 1894, he worked together with Edouard de Jans and Joseph Dierickx to create murals for the Exposition Internationale d'Anvers. (Wikipedia)

Edward Antoon Portielje
Edward Antoon Portielje, the son of the Dutch artist Jan Frederik Pieter Portielje, primarily a portrait painter, was born on February 8th, 1861, in Antwerp. Edward’s brother, Geerard Jozef, was also an artist in the family tradition. He undertook artistic training at École des Beaux-Arts in Antwerp, studying under Charles Verlat, who also taught Van Gogh during the early 1880s. Portielje’s contributions to Belgian painting earned him the respected honor of knighthood from the state. He died on December 18th, 1949 in Antwerp. Portielje’s intimate interior scenes, in the artistic lineage of Belgian painter Jean-Baptiste Madou and the most recognizable of Portielje’s image for modern-day audiences, offer light-hearted reflections of leisure time rendered in warm tones that give his images such immensely appealing qualities. His reliance on local exhibitions shows his patriotism to the creation and advancement of typically Belgian art, in both theme and mood.
