ABOUT JULES RAMBO:
 
Jules Rambo (1896 - 1974) was a painter of landscapes, portraits, figurative pieces and still-life’s. Using an Impressionist technique, yet enlivening his work with Fauvist colours, his heavily applied paint texture makes for an appealing image. Jules was good friends with the sculptor and watercolorist Charles Stepman. A number of major retrospective exhibitions of his work were held in Belgium including one at the Galerij Rubens in Brussels, 1956 in conjunction with the paintings of Gilberte Noyer and others in 1945, 1947 and 1950 at the Galerij De Giroux, also in Brussels.
