Attributed to Frans Binjé, 1835–1900, a Belgian painter of landscapes, animals, and seascapes. Watercolorist and draftsman. He was a student of Henri Van der Hecht. He began with realistic landscapes in the tradition of the Tervueren School, of which he was one of the leading figures. He later evolved toward Impressionism. He influenced the second generation of the Tervueren School. He worked primarily in Brabant, the Ardennes, and along the Belgian coast. He exhibited in Brussels. His landscapes are rendered in a soft, blurred style, with loose brushstrokes, undefined colors, but a thick application of paint. Works are held in museums in Antwerp, Brussels, Kortrijk, Ghent, Liège, and Verviers. The artist is listed in Bénézit, Schurr (Dictionnaire des Petits Maîtres, Valeur de Demain), Arto, and Piron, and is rated by Artprice, Artnet, Akoun...
