Georges de Feure (September 6, 1868 – November 26, 1943)

                                                                                                              
The Voice of Evil
1895

Feure was a wonderful artist of the Art Nouveau style, who crafted soft, romantic works. Also he was, most probably, influenced by Beardsley, especially in certain of his pieces (see Swan Lake below). And Feure in his life rejected academic teachings, finding them useless in his respect, and pursued his own unique art, which led to a death in poverty and without notice. Now I'm afraid it's a bright Saturday, and I had a long night, so this'll have to be a short post. Enjoy the day.
