Juliette Cambier (1879-1949)

Juliette Cambier was a Belgian painter and was married to the painter Louis-Gustave Cambier. She studied in Paris at the Academie Ranson, under Maurice Denis, Paul Sérusier and Edouard Vuillard. She was the niece of Octave Maus, the founder of the group les XX et la Libre Esthétique.

In 1913 she exhibits for the first time at la Libre Esthétique. During the first world War, she stayed with her husband in Cagne-sur-mer in the South of France,  where she met August Renoir. She is mainly a painter of flowers and her work shows a lot of similarities with the flower paintings of Odilon Redon (1840-1916). Odilon Redon turned to the genre of the floral still-life, first in pastel and subsequently in oils as well, around 1900, when he was sixty years old.

Work of her is to be found in the Museum voor Schone Kunsten of Antwerp and in the  Museum of Ixelles in Brussels
