Théo van Rysselberghe was a Belgian painter associated with Neo-Impressionism and a prominent figure among the European avant‑garde at the fin de siècle. Trained at the academies of Ghent and Brussels, he became a founding member of the group “Les Vingt” in 1883, a circle that connected him with figures such as James Ensor and the critic Octave Maus. His travels to Spain and Morocco fostered an interest in Oriental themes and in studies of light and color.
After encountering the pointillism of Georges Seurat, Van Rysselberghe adopted the technique in his painting during the 1880s and 1890s, becoming one of the important voices of Belgian post‑Impressionism. At the end of the nineteenth century and into the early twentieth, he gradually moved away from pointillism: his brushstrokes loosened, his palettes became more vivid and contrasts more pronounced, until he abandoned the method around 1910.
Beyond painting, he worked in the applied arts and furniture design, collaborating with architects such as Henry van de Velde and Victor Horta. Settled in Provence and later on the Côte d’Azur, he withdrew from the Brussels art scene, leaving a body of work that links the technical rigor of pointillism to the chromatic freedom of modernism.
