About the Item

Victor Wagemaekers Brussels 1876 – 1953 Belgian Painter A Road through a Forest Signature: Signed lower right Medium: Mixed Media Dimensions: Image size 47 x 58 cm, frame size 66 x 75,50 cm Biography: Wagemaekers Victor was born on September 5, 1876, in Gannshoren, Belgium. He distinguished himself as a Belgian realist painter and watercolourist, focusing on landscapes, village scenes, farms, and interior views. Victor Wagemaekers showcased his artistic prowess in his first exhibition with the esteemed group Le Sillon in 1899. Subsequently, in 1900, he embarked on a period of study under the tutelage of the renowned artist Franz Courtens. Throughout his career, Wagemaekers extensively painted the landscapes of his native Belgium, exploring areas such as Brussels and its suburbs, the Campine region, and the Grimbergen countryside. His artistic repertoire included realized landscapes, genre scenes, and intimate interior views. Notably, he gained recognition for his mastery of refined, clear, and realistically painted watercolors, drawing inspiration primarily from the Brabant and Antwerp Kempen landscapes. Beyond his artistic pursuits, Wagemaekers played a pivotal role as the treasurer of the Société Nationale des Aquarellistes et Pastellistes, a society founded in 1899, with L. Rotthier serving as chairman. In 1965, a retrospective exhibition celebrating Wagemaekers' body of work took place at the Center of Art in Koekelberg. Today, his pieces are held in high regard, residing in numerous private and public collections, including museums in Antwerp and Turnout. Wagemaekers Victor passed away in Brussels in 1953. His watercolours continue to be highly prized, with notable pieces such as "Autumn at the Old Castle" showcased in the Museum in Antwerp. His contributions are acknowledged in authoritative references such as BAS I and Two Centuries Signatures of Belgian Artists and Piron.

Paysage Arboré Wooded Landscape Framed Provincial Oil Painting Flanders Artist

Frame size 21.1 inches x 24.6 inches ( 53.5cm x 62.5cm ). Available for sale; this original oil painting is by the Flanders artist Henri Joseph Pauwels and is dated 1966. The painting is presented and supplied in a sympathetic contemporary replacement frame (which is shown in these photographs). The painted surface is entirely in its original untouched condition. No restoration, cleaning or conservation has been performed on the artwork. This vintage painting is in a good sound decorative condition. It wants for nothing and is supplied ready to hang and display. The painting is signed and dated lower left. Previously with Galerie Jean-Marr, Le Havre, France. Henri Joseph Pauwels was a notable twentieth century Flemish painter, rooted in Impressionist traditions. He was born on 16 December 1903 in Sleidinge near Antwerp. He died on 12 March 1983 in Beveren-Waas. Pauwels trained academically in Paris, then in private studios in Antwerp. His early works demonstrate his academic training, but he was heavily influenced by Impressionism and his later work has a more vibrant palette and airy, loose brushwork. He was known for his plein air technique, as shown in this piece. Pauwels exhibited widely, mainly in Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam and was successful both before and after WWII. Some of his works are held in public collections, including the Ghent Museum. His works were highly collectable amongst his contemporaries in Belgium, France and the Netherlands. He is known for a range of genres but is best known for his large canvases of romantic landscapes and country life. He also painted harbour scenes and some still life. His works remain collectable for their optimistic, poetic and nostalgic views of wholesome country life. © Big Sky Fine Art Discover Paysage Arboré, an original 1966 oil painting on board by Belgian artist Henri Joseph Pauwels (1903–1983).
