Georges Croegaert Biography

Belgian Academic Classical artist
born 1848 - died 1923

Georges Croegaert artist was born in Anvers in 1848. Croegaert spent most of his life in Paris where he became a painter of portrait and genre paintings.

He is particularly well known for Georges Croegaert paintings of cardinals. He usually depicted them in lavish interiors, sometimes engaging in conversation, taking tea or eating a meal.

Georges Croegaert paintings are highly narrative with objects in the background which contribute to the scene. He had a marvellous eye for detail and his paintings have a tapestry effect, with different strands and textures woven together. Georges Croegaert used a rich variety of colours - delighting in warm reds, yellows, deep bottle-green and gold.

Croegaert also painted outdoor genre scene paintings with figures set against a landscape. As with interior Georges Croegaert paintings, the outdoor paintings portrayed various activities, such as shooters bathing in a forest.
