Charles Kvapil (1884-1957) was a Belgian painter of Austrian origin, renowned for his post-impressionist works with Fauvist overtones. Born in Antwerp, he studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and then at the Académie Julian in Paris. Influenced by the Impressionist masters and the modern currents of the early 20th century, Kvapil developed a personal style marked by vibrant colors and an expressive touch. He specialized in female nudes, portraits and landscapes, often bathed in warm Mediterranean light.
