Rodolphe De Saegher

Rodolphe De Saegher is a Belgian artist, lawyer and politician. An eminent representative of the luminist pictorial current, he is one of the founders of the artistic circle "Vie et Lumière". Rodolphe De Saegher's work consists mainly of pastels on paper, generally of modest dimensions. The artist fixes on the motif, in direct observation of nature, his impressions of the Flemish countryside, mainly around the Lys, but also his memories of travels, in France and Norway in particular. An eminent representative of the Luminist current, his work is characterized by a particular grace and a very fine coloring, synthetic and stylized evocations reflecting the atmospheric variations in all seasons and at different times of the day of landscapes familiar to the artist. He will also paint in watercolor and oil in the same spirit. Rodolphe De Saegher was also a gifted portrait painter. He will repeatedly caricature the members of the various councils on which he will sit during his political career as well as his collaborators in the legal community. Several pastels by Rodolphe De Saegher appear in particular in the collections of the Museum of Fine Arts of the city of Ghent.
