Eugène Siberdt

Eugène / Eugeen François Joseph Siberdt was a Belgian Academic, late-Romantic painter who created portraits, history paintings, genre scenes and Orientalist paintings. He was a successful portrait painter and became the Official Royal Portraitist. He was awarded the Prix de Rome (Second Place) in 1873. He was a typical representative of the late-Romantic style as developed in Belgium by pupils and teachers of the Antwerp Academy. As a typical representative of the academic tradition of the Antwerp academy, Siberdt painted genre scenes often of a sentimental nature, stories from the glorious national artistic history or international historic events. The historic scenes were typically set in the 16th and 17th century, de period during which Antwerp enjoyed its cultural and commercial heyday. Stories from Goethe's Faust were also a recurring theme. Siberdt further created history paintings with biblical subjects. Siberdt painted many Orientalist compositions. These often depict Roma women or harems. He is now mainly known as the professor of drawing at the Antwerp Academy whose conflict with Vincent van Gogh led to van Gogh leaving the Antwerp Academy after only three months of attendance.
