The Impressionist painter who supported Vincent Van Gogh


Born into a wealthy bourgeois family, Anna Boch was able to lead a very independent life and devote herself to painting. When Van Gogh met his brother Eugène, he was very impressed by the fact that Eugène had a sister in the circle of "les vingtistes", otherwise known as the "XX", a Belgian artistic circle at the cutting edge of modernity.

Considered on an equal footing with her fellow painters of the time, she embarked on the adventure of Neo-Impressionism, with Paul Signac and Georges Seurat. Her luminous paintings illustrate her quest for line and color. A passionate nature lover, she captured the beauty of bucolic landscapes.

Philippe will introduce you to this painter who was a great collector of her contemporary fellow artists.
