Henri van Assche; portrait by François-Joseph Navez (1823)

Henri Van Assche (30 August 1774, Brussels - 10 April 1841, Brussels) was a Belgian painter; primarily of landscapes. He was especially well-known for his depictions of waterfalls and water mills. Some of his scenes contain animals painted by Balthasar Paul Ommeganck.

Biography

His father, Joseph François Van Assche, was a master brewer who served as Dean of the "Corporation of Brewers" in 1771 and 1794.[1] When he began showing a talent for drawing, he was given lessons in design and perspective by his father, who was also an amateur artist, then received formal training from Шаблон:Ill. After that, he made study trips through Switzerland and Italy, which developed his predilection for landscapes. Later, he became known as "The Painter of Waterfalls".

He held his first exhibits at the Ghent Salon, and was a member of the Шаблон:Ill. His other memberships included the Royal Academy of Fine Arts (Antwerp), and the Шаблон:Ill in Amsterdam.[2] Many of his works may be seen in public and private collections in Brussels, Ghent, Lille, and Haarlem.

He died in Brussels and was buried in Neder-Over-Heembeek.

Two of his nieces and a nephew were also painters: Amélie van Assche, a portrait miniaturist who became a court painter to Queen Louise of Orléans, and her sister Isabelle Catherine van Assche, who was one of his students,[3] and Шаблон:Ill, the son of Pierre-Joseph De Marneffe, his brother-in-law, who was an art dealer.
