| Note: |
Pierre Eugene Vibert: A highly skilled wood engraver, etcher
and painter, Pierre-Eugene Vibert came to Paris in 1893 and spent most
of his career there. He began exhibiting his art at the prestigious
Paris Salon in 1900 and was awarded a gold medal at the 1903 Exposition
Universalle. As a leading wood engraver, Vibert was equally well respected
for his landscapes, figure studies and portraits. In this latter category,
he engraved the heads of Stendhal, Anatole France, Verhaeren, Gourmont
and Constantin Meunier. Many of his wood engravings were printed in
multiple colours but some of his finest work was in black and white.
Nude, one of his finest original woodcuts, showcases the atmospheric
and textural elements that made his art famous. |
| |
In 1914, Vibert was appointed Professor at the Ecole des
Beaux-Arts, Paris. His art and technique thus influenced a large number
of rising French printmakers in the 1920's and 1930's. |
