A young vendor in the Orient, Emile CHARLET (1851-1927)

About the Item

Jean Joseph Emile Charlet, born on 7 June 1851 in rue des Dominicains 3, Brussels, was the son of Guillaume Charlet (1822-1907), a merchant and industrialist specialising in the manufacture of braids and trimmings for cars and straps for saddlers, and Emilie Marie D'Ieteren (1824-1900), who married in Brussels on 22 May 1847. He was the brother of painter Frantz Charlet. Emile Charlet married Louise Charlotte Schamps (born in Brussels on 9 October 1857), also a painter, in Brussels on 19 October 1880. Emile Charlet studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels, before completing his training in the studio of Jean-François Portaels. Emile Charlet's career began at the Ghent Salon in 1874. He then exhibited at the Brussels Salon in 1875 and took part in some fifteen Belgian triennial salons, as well as four Paris Salons and several exhibitions organised by the Cercle artistique et littéraire de Bruxelles. Emile Charlet also exhibited in his personal studio on rue Paul Lauters in Ixelles, where he had lived since around 1900. He stopped exhibiting after 1910, but continued to paint. Exceptionally, he sent his works to the Cercle artistique in March 1926 for a final exhibition. On 3 March 1927, at the age of 75, Emile Charlet died at rue Paul Lauters no 33 in Ixelles, where he had his studio. There is a work listed at the Ghent Salon in 1877, ‘Oriental Subject’. Probably the one we have here. Beautiful frame in the process of being restored. 90x64 cm
