Albert PINOT was born in 1875 to a French father and a Belgian mother. He began his artistic training in 1890 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels with Joseph Stallaert (1825 - 1903).
In 1893, he was one of the founding members of the Brussels artistic movement Le Sillon.
This circle chaired by Gustave-Max Stevens (1871 - 1946) was originally made up of young artists from the Academy wishing to return to the sources of Flemish painting.
From 1919, Albert Pinot worked in Paris. The watercolor that we offer dates from this period.
Pinot returned to settle permanently in Brussels from 1934.
Works in the Museums of Brussels, Brabant, Vernon.
