Georges-Emile Lebacq was a Belgian painter born in Jemappes (Hainaut) the 26th September 1876 and died in Bruges the 4th August 1950.

[edit] Biography

A Post-Impressionist and Impressionist painter, Lebacq was alternately a watercolourist, pastellist and portrait, landscape and still life painter. He also painted church interiors (stained-glass windows and paintings). Certain art-work as "Lumière d'été à Vaux-le-Pénil" or "Le Repos en Terrasse" are Impressionist. He was a student at the Académie Julian at Paris in 1920 and worked mainly in France.

[edit] Work

Most of the paintings of Lebacq are in private collections. Until recently, paintings of this artist were rather rare on the Art market. Emma Lebacq, wife of the painter, was a whealthy person. So she granted him for devoting body and soul to the painting but not to trade it.
