Henri Joseph Pauwels was a notable twentieth century Flemish painter, rooted in Impressionist traditions. He was born on 16 December 1903 in Sleidinge near Antwerp. He died on 12 March 1983 in Beveren-Waas.
Pauwels trained academically in Paris, then in private studios in Antwerp. His early works demonstrate his academic training, but he was heavily influenced by Impressionism and his later work has a more vibrant palette and airy, loose brushwork. He was known for his plein air technique, as shown in this piece. Pauwels exhibited widely, mainly in Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam and was successful both before and after WWII. Some of his works are held in public collections, including the Ghent Museum.

His works were highly collectable amongst his contemporaries in Belgium, France and the Netherlands. He is known for a range of genres but is best known for his large canvases of romantic landscapes and country life. He also painted harbour scenes and some still life. His works remain collectable for their optimistic, poetic and nostalgic views of wholesome country life.

Discover Paysage Arboré, an original 1966 oil painting on board by Belgian artist Henri Joseph Pauwels (1903–1983). This tranquil landscape captures a lush, tree-lined riverbank rendered in rich Impressionist brushwork and a naturalistic palette of greens, browns, and blues. Signed and dated in the lower left, this collectible work showcases Pauwels’ mastery in capturing light, texture, and atmosphere in the Flemish countryside. A fine example of mid-20th century Belgian landscape painting, ideal for collectors of post-Impressionist and European plein air art. See less
