Note du spécialiste

Born in 1865 in Brussels, Joseph Dierickx received his artistic education at the Académie Bruxelles under the tutelage of Jean Francois Portaels and Joseph Stallaert from 1881 to 1886. He received the Prix Godecharle in 1887, which enabled the young artist to travel to Italy to further his artistic studies. In 1892, along with his brother Omer, he was one of the co-founders of Pour L’Art along with Joséphin Péladan, one of foremost proponents of the Symbolist movement in Belgium.
