Notes

Theo Humblet was a Belgian artist born in 1919 in Leuven and died in 2006 in Rotselaar. He was a painter, graphic artist, woodcarver, illustrator, sculptor and ceramist. He studied at the Academy in Leuven and at Sint-Lukas in Schaerbeek. Although he traveled to Yugoslavia, Japan, Mexico and Spain his art remained concerned with local subjects and themes: urban and mostly rural landscapes and environments (with a section of his work dedicated to the female nude). He liked to use the stacking rooflines that are referenced in this print. The character in the print is also typical of his work in that she is staring ahead without moving, lost in her own thoughts. He was director at the Academy in Leuven from 1959 to 1979. His work is in the permanent collection of the European Parliament and in the Museum in Kortrijk.
