About the Item

Hubert Bellis 1831 - Brussels - 1902 Belgian Painter 'Red and Yellow Roses in a Glass Vase' Signature: signed lower right Medium: oil on panel Dimensions: image size 43,50 x 23 cm, frame size 61,50 x 41 cm Biography: Bellis Hubert (Josse-Lambert) was born on January 6, 1831, in the heart of Brussels. He was a painter of exquisite still lifes, flowers, fruits, and captivating portraits. Bellis started on his artistic journey at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels, where he honed his craft under the tutelage of the esteemed François-Joseph Navez (1787 – 1869), and Jean Henri De Coene (1798 – 1866) as well. His artistic flair flourished under their guidance during the years 1846 to 1857. In 1857, a new chapter unfolded as Bellis joined forces with his brother Charles-Louis Bellis, setting up a creative haven at 31 Brandhoutkaai in Brussels. A camaraderie with Guillaume Vogels and Jean Degreef gave birth to artistic collaborations that bloomed with creativity. As time waltzed forward, Bellis transitioned from strength to strength, earning a reputation for his meticulously detailed still lifes and captivating portraits from 1875 onwards. Hubert and Charles-Louis found solace in the company of “La Chrysalide,” an artist association in Brussels that nurtured young talents. The legacy of Bellis shimmered through the salons organised by the association in 1876, 1877, 1878, and 1881. In 1883, he embarked on a voyage of study, journeying to Amsterdam in the company of kindred spirits James Ensor and Guillaume Vogels. His still lifes emerged as odes to the delicate allure of flowers, fruits, and seashells. With time, his artistry evolved, casting off the yoke of meticulously controlled compositions in favor of spontaneous brushstrokes, resonating with natural elegance. Roses, geraniums, chrysanthemums in humble pots, succulent grapes, oysters, and prawns plucked from the sea graced his canvases with lifelike vibrancy, painted with the soul of an impressionist. Hubert died in Saint-Josse-ten-Noode on April 16, 1902. Today, his work is private and public collections across the globe, housed in prestigious venues such as the Musée de la Picardie in Amiens, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, the Royal Museums of Fine Arts in Brussels, the Museum of Elsene in Brussels, the Stedelijk Museum Van der Kelen-Mertens in Leuven, the Musée des Beaux-Arts Liège, the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne, the Musée Communal in Verviers, the Collection of the Chamber of Representatives in Brussels, and the Municipal Collection in Schaerbeek.

'Still Life with Flower Vase on a Table' by David De Noter (1818 – 1892)
Located in Knokke, BE
David De Noter Ghent 1818 – 1892 Bologhine Belgian Painter 'Still Life with a Lapis Lazuli Coloured Flower Vase on a Table' Signature: signed lower right 'David De Noter' Medium: oil on panel Dimensions: image size 35 x 27 cm, frame size 41,5 x 34 cm Biography: David De Noter was born in Ghent on June 24, 1818, and passed away in Saint Eugène Bologhine, Algiers, on January 21, 1892. He was a renowned Belgian painter, celebrated for his detailed still lifes and interior scenes. Born in Ghent, he was the son of Jan-Baptist De Noter, a draftsman and architect, from whom he received his early artistic training. His mother, Carola Maya, married Jan-Baptist shortly before David’s birth. He had a brother, Michaël, who tragically passed away at a young age (1821-1823), and two sisters, Anne-Marie and Edalie. In 1840, De Noter moved to Brussels, and five years later, on November 25, 1845, he married Clemence Wauters in Mechelen. Together, they had seven children. His son Raphaël would also become a painter. By the 1860s, De Noter had relocated to Paris, where it is believed he shared a studio with the well-known art dealer J. Goupil around 1864. In his later years, De Noter and his family moved to Algiers, North Africa, where he contributed a floral still life to the Algiers Museum in 1870. By around 1879, he was living in Le Nador, near Marengo. David De Noter is primarily celebrated for his exquisite still lifes featuring flowers, vegetables, seafood, game, and fruit. He also painted detailed kitchen and salon interiors, as well as genre scenes, often with a strong focus on still life elements within the broader composition. His style combined meticulous realism with a romantic atmosphere, capturing both the beauty and mood of his subjects. During his time in Algiers, De Noter began painting local scenes, including views of the Kasbah of Algiers. Throughout his career, De Noter collaborated with notable artists such as Henri Leys, Guillaume Koller, Louis Tuerlinckx, and Alfred Stevens. His works remain highly valued on the art market today. His paintings were exhibited in various cities, including Kortrijk, Brussels, Rotterdam, The Hague, and Paris. In 1854, he was awarded a gold medal at an exhibition in Brussels. David De Noter’s artwork has been exhibited in prestigious galleries and museums across Europe, showcasing the enduring appeal of his detailed and romantic still life paintings. His works can be found in the permanent collections of several important institutions, including: Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, Brussels; Musée des Beaux-Arts, Cambrai; Stedelijk Museum, Kortrijk; Art Gallery, Leeds; John Selbach Museum, Maaseik; Museum Hof van Busleyden, Mechelen; Musée des Beaux-Arts, Mulhouse; Municipal Collection, Schaerbeek; Museo Revoltella, Trieste; Museo Municipal “Quiñones de León...
