Summer landscape with figures. Watercolor. Signed 'Alice Frey'. Frame. Dimensions: 13 x 22 cm (28.5 x 36 cm) She took lessons to become a dressmaker, a profession she then taught herself as a teacher. While she regularly spent the summer months in Ostend and spent the First World War there with her family, she met James Ensor in 1914, who encouraged her and gave her painting lessons. She could thus call herself "the only student" of James Ensor. After the war, she started studying at the art academy in Antwerp, as a student of Juliaan De Vriendt and Félix Gogo. Together with the Antwerp poet Paul Neuhuys she founded the avant-garde group Ça Ira. Provenance is delivered upon purchase.
