Biography: Charles Joseph Watelet was a Belgian painter born in 1867 in Beauraing. He began his artistic education at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, where he received instruction from notable figures such as Jean-François Portaels and Alfred Stevens — the latter celebrated for his refined depictions of women. Watelet's academic training, however, was brief; after just three months, he returned to Marcinelle and supported himself for the next decade as a portrait painter, primarily catering to the upper class of Brussels.
In 1901, he settled in Uccle, a commune of Brussels, where he continued to develop his distinctive style. Women remained central to his artistic oeuvre — portrayed in a variety of moods and settings: fashionably dressed with elaborate hats, immersed in quiet contemplation, or engaged in intimate everyday activities. He also frequently painted female nudes, often placing them in sensual boudoir scenes or idyllic outdoor settings such as rivers or gardens.
Watelet’s paintings were highly appreciated during his lifetime for their elegance, subtlety, and intimacy. His refined yet spontaneous brushwork, impressionistic handling of light, and delicate color palette lent his compositions a graceful, almost lyrical quality. Whether depicting women at balls, in theatres, in salons, restaurants, or even churches, Watelet consistently conveyed a deep sense of emotional nuance — from joyous to more melancholic moments.
He enjoyed considerable success during his career, including recognition at the Paris Salons. His works are held in several major Belgian collections, including the Royal Museums of Fine Arts in Brussels, as well as museums in Liège, Charleroi, and Ixelles.
Charles Joseph Watelet is referenced in the Biographie Nationale de Belgique (BAS I) and Deux siècles de signatures d'artistes belges, confirming his position among the prominent Belgian artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

A Fashionable Young Lady
Oil on canvas

Illustrator, teacher, and painter Irving Ramsey Wiles was adept at portraits, figural works, and
landscapes characterized by the informal elegance of cosmopolitan American art at the turn of the twentieth century. Wiles received his earliest art instruction from his father, landscape painter and teacher Lemuel M. Wiles (1826–1905), and at the age of eighteen, in 1879, exhibited his first painting at New York’s prestigious National Academy of Design. After one year’s study at the Art Students League in New York, under the influential painter-teachers William Merritt Chase and J. Carroll Beckwith, Wiles went to Paris for further study. He enrolled in the Académie Julian, a popular school among American artists, and then worked in the studio of French academic painter Charles Auguste Émile Durand, known as Carolus-Duran (1837–1917). During his student years Wiles painted watercolor street scenes of Paris, and he also traveled in Italy and in the French countryside.
Wiles returned to New York in 1884 and exhibited two of his sketches. These attracted the notice of the art editor of the popular Century Magazine, who asked the young artist to make illustrations for the journal. Wiles’s illustrations appeared in other publications as well, and he also supported himself by teaching at his studio and at his father’s summer art school in upstate New York. Wiles was elected a member of the progressive Society of American Artists and, after one of his works won a prize there, to the National Academy of Design as an associate member; full membership followed in 1897. By that date, Wiles was able to devote himself more fully to portraits and figural compositions in oils, paintings that mark the influence of his teacher Chase, who remained a lifelong friend. Like his mentor, Wiles also worked in watercolor and pastel and belonged to several organizations devoted to those media, which enjoyed revivals in late-nineteenth-century America. He exhibited his work widely and won numerous awards throughout his career.
In the late 1890s, Wiles and his father moved their summer classes to Peconic, on the North Fork of New York’s Long Island...
