Product description
Watercolor on paper.
Hand signed. 1967
Dimensions: 35 x 20 / 35 x 18
These two watercolor paintings form a cohesive duo, unified by a vibrant green color palette that threads through each piece, creating a harmonious visual connection. This shared palette not only links the works aesthetically but also evokes the lush, earthy vibrancy of the natural world. In the first painting, subtle greens blend with blues and earthy tones to depict a misty, atmospheric landscape, drawing the viewer into a serene, contemplative space.
The artist’s gentle blending and layered washes create a sense of depth and tranquility among the rocky formations. In the second work, the bold, electric green background intensifies the scene, adding a surreal, almost dreamlike quality. This vibrant choice elevates the rocky forms, making them feel monumental against the striking backdrop. The contrast between the intense green and the muted tones of the rock formations imbues the scene with a sense of energy and dynamism, while still maintaining a visual balance with the companion piece.
Together, these paintings demonstrate the artist’s skill in using a cohesive color scheme to unify distinct landscapes, highlighting the versatility of nature’s moods—from quiet reflection to vivid intensity. Through expressive brushwork and a thoughtful color palette, the artist captures both the beauty and the mystery of the landscapes, inviting viewers to explore these complementary, yet uniquely powerful, scenes.
Eugène Eechaut 1928-2019
Since the 1960s, he has exhibited alongside Magritte at the Pfeiffer Gallery in Brussels. And several photos show them together. He exhibited at the Tamara Pfeiffer Gallery in 1969 with, for example: Ambrogiani, Bricault, Jean Cocteau, G de Pauw, De Muylder, Max Ernst, Hilaire, Jamotte, Felicien Robs, etc... as evidenced by the invitation card included in the photos.
In 1958 E. Eechaut received his first distinctions as a painter at the "European Center for Art and Aesthetics." From 1968, he participated and organized with "the Tamara Pfeiffer Gallery" and during the 1960s and 1970s. His style, which will initially be called "FANTASTIC" art with elegance and finesse in his interpretations. His colors, which instantly seduce us, reveal the subject, a subject that ultimately captivates us. Throughout his career, E. Eechaut rubbed shoulders with and exhibited in the greatest galleries and art exhibitions in Europe. In catalogs and invitations, we find artists such as Jean Cocteau, René Magritte, Dunoyer de Segonzac, Léon Navez, Félicien Rops, Paul Klee, and many others. E. Eechaut, a wealthy man for whom the sale of his works was impossible, even within his own family. He jealously guarded his production, hence the lack of information and the lack of sales results for his work.
His recently rediscovered studio opens the doors to his numerous works in their entirety. The archives of his career were found at the same time as his work, giving it another dimension.
