‘Oriental Girls - Mediants à Tanger’ by Jean François Portaels (1818 - 1895)
Located in Knokke, BE
Jean François Portaels 1818 - Brussels - 1895 Belgian Painter ‘Oriental Girls - Mediants à Tanger, Maroc’ Signature: signed lower right ‘J. Portaels’ Medium: oil on canvas Dimensions: image size 40,5 x 28,5 cm, frame size 67,5 x 56 cm Biography: Jean François Portaels, also known as Jan Portaels, was a versatile Belgian painter born on April 3, 1818, in Vilvoorde and passed away on February 8, 1895, in Schaerbeek. He was celebrated for his genre scenes, biblical stories, landscapes, portraits, and Orientalist subjects. As a teacher and director of the Academy of Fine Arts of Ghent and the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, Portaels significantly impacted Belgian art, becoming a pivotal figure in the Belgian Orientalist school. His works were known for their 'everyday elegance and feminine grace,' and he played a crucial role in influencing the next generation of Belgian artists, including notable figures like Théo van Rysselberghe. Portaels was the son of a wealthy brewer who also served as Vilvoorde's mayor. Showing an early passion for drawing, he was sent to the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Brussels in 1836, where he studied under François-Joseph Navez, a former student of Jacques-Louis David. Navez invited him to his studio, which was renowned at the time, allowing Portaels to refine his skills alongside other talented students like Charles de Groux and Joseph Stallaert. In 1841, Portaels moved to Paris, enrolling at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts and studying under Paul Delaroche. He became influenced by the emerging Orientalist movement, which was gaining traction in Paris. In 1842, he won the Grand Prix de Rome, which funded his travels across Italy and other regions, including Morocco, Algeria, Egypt, Lebanon, Judea, Spain, Hungary, and Norway. These journeys profoundly influenced his artistic vision, particularly his Orientalist works. Upon his return to Belgium in 1847, Portaels was appointed Director of the academy in Ghent. In 1849, he married Marie Hélène Navez, the daughter of his first teacher. Despite being offered the directorship of the Brussels Academy, he initially declined, opting to preserve his independence. He later accepted a teaching position at the Academy and eventually became its director in 1878, succeeding Eugène Simonis. Portaels was known for his broad range of artistic talents, including history painting, portraiture, and genre art. He was particularly recognised for his Orientalist depictions, often portraying the 'Oriental woman' with distinctive features like arched eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes. His style, marked by charm and elegance, distinguished him from the dominant artistic movements of Classicism and Romanticism. He was a pioneer in monumental art in Belgium, working with Jean Baptiste van Eycken to introduce fresco techniques like water glass painting...

As a New Yorker, I feel a personal and deep connection to this rich, energetic and beautiful city with its amazingly diverse population. My objective is to paint about the people of New York, realistically and with compassion. I have expressed my strongly held feelings about peace and justice; deep outrage to war, injustice and torture are conveyed in some of my paintings. With regard to these themes, I have been inspired by Old Masters such as Caravaggio, Goya, Kollwitz and Picasso. I choose to paint realistically because I believe realism is truth and truth is beauty. I derive an aesthetic pleasure in skillfully done realistic drawings and paintings. I believe that realism can communicate ideas strongly and it is this communication that is extremely important to me.” – Max Ginsburg Born: Paris, France, 1931 Education: High School of Music and Art, New York, NY (1945-1949) Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY, BFA (1949-1953) City College of New York, New York, NY, MA (1960-1963) Studied informally with Abraham Ginsburg over many years Teaching: High School of Art and Design, New York, NY (1960 -1982) School of Visual Arts, New York, NY (1984 -2000) Art Students League, New York, NY (1997-2000; 2008-2011) Workshops: Art Students League, New York, NY Los Angeles Academy of Figurative Art, Los Angeles, CA Atelier de Bresoles, Montreal, Canada Salmagundi Club, New York, NY Art League of Long Island, Dix Hills, NY Academy of Fine Arts, Laval, QC, Canada Painting Demonstrations: Allied Artists of America, New York, NY Los Angeles Academy of Figurative Art, Los Angeles, CA Salmagundi Club, New York, NY Society of Illustrators, New York, NY Laguna College of Art, Laguna, CA Art League of Long Island, Dix Hills, NY Solo Exhibitions: The Butler Institute of American Art, Youngstown, OH 2011 (Retrospective) Salmagundi Club, New York, NY 2011 (Retrospective) International Peace Museum – Missing Art Space, Dayton, OH 2009 Martin Luther King Labor Center Gallery,1199 SEIU, New York, NY 2008 Franklin Mint, Exton, PA 1993 Reyn Gallery, New York, NY 1980 Harbor Gallery, Cold Spring Harbor, NY 1980, 1978, 1977, 1975, 1974,1972, 1971, 1969, 1968, 1966 Gallery 306, Bala Cynwood, PA 1979 Martin Luther King Labor Center, Local 1199, New York, NY 1977, 1972 Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY 1953 Selected Awards: “Best in Show” Award – Art Renewal Center Salon, 2011 Joseph Hartley Memorial Award, Salmagundi Club non-members Juried Exhibition, 2010 Philip Desind Award, 72nd National Midyear Exhibition, The Butler Institute of American Art, 2008 Forbes Magazine Award, Salmagundi Club non-members Juried Exhibition, 2008 Collectors Prize, 71st National Midyear Exhibition, The Butler Institute of American Art, 2007 Best in Show Award, Salmagundi Club non-members Juried Exhibition, 2007 Elias and Lillian Judith Newman Award, Audubon Artists, 2007 The Len G.
