Frantz Charlet (1862–1928) was a Belgian painter and engraver trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels and later in Paris, notably under Jean-Léon Gérôme.
In 1883, alongside James Ensor and Théo Van Rysselberghe, he helped found the famous Belgian art group “Les XX,” a major force in the artistic avant-garde of the late 19th century.
His body of work includes landscapes, portraits, and genre scenes, characterized by an Impressionist sensibility.
His works are held in the collections of museums in Brussels and Antwerp.
