Hubert Glansdorff Brussels 1877 – 1963 Knokke Belgian Painter 'Roses in a Green Vase' Signature: signed lower left and dated 1941 'Glansdorff 41' Medium: oil on canvas Dimensions: image size 80 x 100 cm; frame size 107 x 127 cm Biography: Hubert Glansdorff was born in Ixelles, Belgium, in 1877. He was a Belgian figurative painter whose work encompassed genre scenes, seascapes, floral still lifes, female figures, nudes, and portraits. Over the course of his career, he developed a distinctive painterly language that combined academic training with a luminous, colour-rich sensibility. From an early age, Glansdorff showed a natural inclination toward pictorial expression. The picturesque aspects of life and landscape emerged organically in his work rather than as a calculated artistic choice. His visual world was shaped by instinct as much as by study, resulting in compositions that often feel immediate and atmospheric. He initially admired the Flemish Primitives, whose influence can be felt in his attention to structure and tonal harmony. However, Glansdorff gradually evolved toward a more personal form of Luminism, characterised by warm light effects, vibrant colour, and a heightened sensitivity to atmosphere. His palette became increasingly rich and expressive, particularly in his floral compositions for which he gained considerable recognition. Glansdorff studied at the Brussels Academy of Fine Arts, where he worked alongside and was influenced by artists such as Joseph Stallaert. During his formative years, he also developed friendships with contemporary artists including Joris De Bruyne, Alphonse Blomme, and Albert Alleman. He became a member of the Cercle Artistique et Littéraire de Bruxelles, an important artistic circle in the Belgian capital. In 1904, he exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants in Brussels, presenting works such as Armenian Fiddler. Later, in 1920, he participated in exhibitions at the Cercle Artistique et Littéraire, the Salle Studio, and the Salon d’Automne, alongside artists such as Pierre Abattucci, Firmin Baes...

Edward Portielje was born in Antwerp on February 8, 1861, and passed away there on December 18, 1949. He came from a distinctly artistic family that had been involved in painting for multiple generations. His works are now held in public collections and museums in Antwerp, Chicago, Melbourne, Sydney, and Bordeaux. The Portielje family had its roots in the Netherlands. Edward’s grandfather owned a bookstore in Amsterdam specializing in luxury engravings. His father, Jan Portielje, however, chose a career in painting and studied at the Antwerp Academy. From the 1850s, Jan gained recognition for his refined portraits of the affluent bourgeoisie: barons, baronesses, and elegant ladies, often with a Spanish or Oriental touch. He even painted a portrait of King Leopold II. After marrying the Antwerp native Eulalia Lemaire, he settled permanently in Antwerp. The couple had five children, including Gerard...
