Marie HOWET (1897-1984). Bouquet of flowers in the pitcher. Oil on panel. Dimensions: 20 x 21 cm. Marie Howet was born in Libramont in 1897. At the age of 16, she entered the Académie des Beaux-arts in Brussels, and less than a year later the École des Beaux-arts in Paris. In 1922, at the age of 25, she won the Belgian Prix de Rome for painting. She was the first woman to be so distinguished. One of her most famous works is the portrait of Marie and Jules Destrée. She is considered one of the founders of the Vresse school. She died in Rochehaut in 1984, where her house, restored in 1937, is listed as a historic monument, as is the Rochehaut church.
