Graphic artists Divisionism
Georges Lemmen is a Belgian Neo-Impressionist painter, member of the XX Society. He was close to art from childhood and studied for a time at a special drawing school. In the early 1880s, as a teenager, he was introduced to the work of Edgar Degas and Henri Toulouse-Lautrec, which had a great influence on him.
Georges Lemmen's paintings were marked by the use of fine, clean strokes and a vivid colour palette. He used the technique of divisionism, applying strokes of pure colour in close proximity to one another to create a sense of optical blending and luminescence.
Lemmen's subject matter was varied: landscapes, portraits, interiors and scenes of everyday life. He often portrayed leisurely pursuits and the beauty of nature, infusing his work with a sense of tranquillity and harmony.
Until 1895, he abandoned pointillism to contribute to the development of Belgian Art Nouveau. He created many book illustrations, posters, ceramics, carpets, drawings, pastels and gouaches in this style.
Lucien Pissarro was a French painter, graphic artist and woodcutter, representative of Pointillism. Son of Camille Pissarro. Since 1890, he lived and worked in England.
Lucien Pissarro initially studied painting under his father. He later developed his own artistic style influenced by the neo-impressionist techniques of Georges Seurat and Paul Signac. Like other Neo-Impressionist painters, Pissarro used broken strokes and divisionism techniques to create light and vivid effects.
The subjects of Pissarro's paintings often included landscapes, rural scenes and coastal vistas, reflecting his love of nature and the countryside. He was particularly fond of capturing the effects of light and atmosphere in his paintings, using a subtle and harmonious colour palette.
