Emile CHARLET
1851 - 1890
Born 1851 in Belgium
Painter of genre, portraits, landscapes, and still life pictures
A pupil of Portaels, the first exhibition in 1874 in Belgium, later in Paris in 1877 and also the l’Exposition of Brussels in 1910
The life of Emile Charlet (1851-1910) can be pieced together through his contemporaries. His brother Frantz Charlet (1862-1928) was a friend of Theo van Rysselberghe (1862-1926), both were founding members of Les XX Group, the short-lived modernist circle, which broke away from the formality of the Belgian Royal Academy, and later typified a general rejection of academicism. It attracted an international following, including the poet Verlaine and the composers Debussy and Faure. Visiting artists included Whistler, Rodin, Monet and Gaugin to name a few. The group was also quick to recognise the talent of van Gogh and held a retrospective of his works shortly after his death in 1890.
He was born in Brussels in 1851 to a wealthy family. It isn’t known at what point he entered the Royal Academy there, though he learnt enough of its conventions so that he might later reject them. He also came under the influence of the orientalist Jean Francois Portaels (1818-1895), who was once a pupil of Paul Delaroche (1797-1856). In Delaroche’s studio, Portaels likely met the young Jean-Léon Gérôme (1824-1904) and it is telling that he frequently instructed his students (Charlet’s younger brother included) to study with Gérôme in Paris.He likely did the same with Emile, who was living in Paris by 1879.
His brother and van Rysselberghe joined him there in 1881, shortly before their tour of Spain and North Africa. It is possible that Emile travelled with them. He frequently accompanied his brother on painting trips, including one to Nunspeet and Volendam in 1885, where they were joined by James Abbot Mcneill Whistler (1834-1903). His picture of market women in the Zuiderzee Museum was painted at this time and in the pointillist style of artists such as Georges Seurat, Paul Signac, van Rysselberghe and Les XX Group.

- The Flower GirlBy Louise AbbemaLocated in St. Albans, GBLouise Abbéma 1853–1927 Louise Abbéma (30 October 1853[1] – 10 July 1927) was a French painter, sculptor, and designer of the Belle Époque. Abbéma was born in Étampes, Essonne Born into a wealthy aristocratic Parisian family with close ties to the city’s artistic community, She began painting in her early teens, and studied under such notables of the period as Charles Joshua Chaplin, Jean-Jacques Henner and Carolus-Duran. Portraits of actors and actresses at the Comédie Française dominated her early works until she made a name for herself at the Salon of 1876 with her portrayal of the “Divine Sarah.” Abbéma ultimately executed multiple portraits and received recognition for her work at age 23 a bronze medallion of Sarah Bernhardt, with whom she was a close friend and possibly lover. Like most women artists of the time, Abbéma focused mainly on portraiture and genre scenes (images of everyday life). Her high-society portraits executed with a light touch and rapid brushstrokes reveal the academic and Impressionist influences that shaped her style. Her sitters included French diplomats and other notable members of society. Abbéma developed a variety of techniques using oil paints, pastel, and watercolor, and worked on various supports, including fans. Abbéma received commissions for panels and murals which adorned the Paris Town Hall, the Paris Opera House, numerous theatres including the Theatre Sarah Bernhardt, and the "Palace of the Colonial Governor" at Dakar, Senegal. Abbéma solidified her international reputation after exhibiting works, including two wall murals (on canvas), at the Women’s Building at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition in Chicago. A bust of Sarah Bernhardt sculpted by Abbéma was also exhibited at the exposition. Abbéma specialized in oil portraits and watercolors, and many of her works showed the influence from Chinese and Japanese painters, as well as contemporary masters such as Édouard Manet. She frequently depicted flowers in her works. Among her best-known works are The Seasons, April Morning, Place de la Concorde, Among the Flowers, Winter, and portraits of actress Jeanne Samary, Emperor Dom Pedro...Category
