KHNOPFF, FERNAND EDMOND JEAN MARIE (1858 )

This article appears in Volume V15, Page 778 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: KHA-KRI
KHNOPFF, FERNAND EDMOND JEAN MARIE (1858 ) , Belgian painter and etcher, was born at the chateau de Grembergen (Termonde), on the 12th of September 1858, and studied under X. Mellery. He developed a very
original
  talent, his
work
  being characterized by
great
  delicacy of colour, tone and harmony, as subtle in spiritual and intellectual as in its material qualities. " A Crisis " (1881) was followed by " Listening to Schumann," " St Anthony " and " The Queen of Sheba " (1883), and then came one of his best known works, " The Small
Sphinx
 " (1884). His" Memories " (1889) and" White, Black and Gold " (1901) are in the Brussels Museum; " Portrait of Mlle R." (1889) in the Venice Museum; "A Stream at Fosset"(1897) at Budapest Museum; " The Empress (1899) in the collection of the emperor of Austria, and " A Musician " in that of the king of the Belgians. " I lock my
Door
  upon Myself " (1891), which was exhibited at the New Gallery, London, in 1902 and there attracted much attention, was acquired by the Pinakothek at
Munich
 . Other works are " Silence " (189o), " The
Idea
  of
Justice
  " (1905) and " Isolde " (1906), together with a poly-chrome bust " Sibyl " (1894) and an
ivory
  mask (1897). In quiet intensity of feeling Khnopff was influenced by Rossetti, and in simplicity of line by Burne-Jones, but the poetry and the delicately mystic and enigmatic note of his
work
  are entirely individual. He did good work also as an etcher and drypointist.
See L. Dumont-Wilden, Fernand Khnopff (Brussels, 1907). ,
