About the Item

De Groux Victor Brussels 1895 – 1975 Belgian Painter Landscape at the River Signature: Signed bottom right Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: Image size 80,50 x 100,50 cm, frame size 92 x 112 cm Biography: Victor De Groux, also known as Degroux Victor, was born in 1895 in Brussels, Belgium. He was a skilled Belgian painter, celebrated for his depictions of landscapes, townscapes, old rural buildings, forests, and riverside scenes. His art elegantly captured the tranquility of wooded areas, the meandering charm of rivers in the Brabant and Ardennes regions, and the timeless allure of historical towns in Flanders and Wallonia. De Groux received his artistic education at the Brussels Academy of Fine Arts under the tutelage of Constant Montald and Louis Clesse. Notably, he carried the artistic lineage of being the grand-nephew of the French genre painter Charles de Groux. His artistic style harmoniously merged influences from the French Barbizon School and the works of landscape painter Hippolyte Emmanuel Boulenger. Additionally, he drew inspiration from eminent Belgian landscape painters such as Baron Franciscus Eduardus Maria Courtens and Joseph Theodore Coosemans. De Groux’s creative pursuits took him across borders to countries like the Netherlands, Germany, Spain, France, and even the Dutch East Indies (Indonesia). He bid adieu to the world in 1973 in Ixelles. Today, his artistic legacy finds its esteemed place in both private and public collections. Noteworthy institutions like the Brussels Ixelles Museum, Charlier-Museum, Museum in Elsene, and the M. K. Čiurlionis National Art Museum in Kaunas, Lithuania, proudly showcase his timeless works.

  • Landscape in the Ardennes, Alphonse Asselbergs, Brussels 1839 – 1916, Belgian
    Located in Bruges, BE
    Landscape in the Ardennes Asselbergs Alphonse Brussels 1839 – 1916 Belgian Painter Signature: Signed bottom left Medium: Oil on canvas Dimensions: Image size 60,50 x 100 cm, frame size 73,50 x 113 cm The place this painting depicts is a small village Achouffe in the municipality of Houffalize, in Wallonia, Belgium. It is located in the forested Ardennes region. Situated within the Bastogne district Luxembourg province. Biography: Asselbergs Alphonse was born on June 19, 1839 in Brussels, Belgium. He was a painter of landscapes and forests. He studied with the master teacher and artist Edouard Huberti from 1863. After having led a world traveled life as a trader, he returned to the countryside of Belgium in 1867 and stayed in the Tervuren region and spent his time painting landscapes with great artists such as H. Boulenger, E. Huberti, J. Coosemans and Th. Baron. In 1868, he co-founded the “Societé Libre des Beaux-Arts”. From 1873 to 1874, he traveled and painted in North Africa with the watercolourist, Arthur Bouvier. It resulted in a number of canvases in the oriental style, but unfortunately without any commercial success. Despite having been shown at numerous exhibitions, they were all still in his studio at the time of his death. After returning from his travels, he lived near the artists’ colony in Genk and made occasional excursions to the forests of Fontainebleu in France. From 1875 to 1877 he worked in the Barbizon region with students of Rousseau. In 1877, Asselbergs moved to Brussels. He painted quite actively in the Brussels countryside, in the Ardennes and Campine regions. He had a studio with a round tower, on a street that is now named after him. He also made short trips abroad to France and Italy. During the 1880’s, he held exhibitions at the Salon de Paris. In 1881, receiving a second commission in 1896, he was named Officer in the Order of Leopold: it is the oldest and highest Order of Belgium and is named in honor of its founder the King Leopold...
