1896 woodcut by Doudelet
Charles Doudelet the Symbolist painter and printmaker was born
Karel Gustav Doudelet in Lille in 1861. Doudelet studied both music
and art in his home city. He was a friend of Maurice Maeterlinck,
and was one of his first illustrators. Doudelet made his first engraving
at the age of 28, exhibiting a copper engraving at the concours de
Rome in Anvers, where he met the sculptor Constantin Meunier, who
encouraged him to paint. Doudelet exhibited with the Cercle des XX
in Brussels, and at the Salon du Champs de Mars in Paris. The art
of Charles Doudelet was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelites, especially
Burne-Jones. Charles Doudelet died in Ghent in 1938. (Idbury Prints)
