Jules Guiette

Jules Guiette was an artist known for his graphic works, documented as active in 1862. His recorded output consists primarily of prints focusing on topographical views, natural landscapes, and maritime scenes.

Guiette’s subjects often centered on specific European locations and detailed natural studies. Notable works include the urban topographical view Gezicht op de Place de la Commune in Antwerpen, documenting a specific civic space. His landscape work frequently depicts forest environments and water sources, as exemplified by the prints Boslandschap met beek and Bron van een beek in het bos. Marine activity is also a recurring theme, seen in his depictions such as Drie zeilboten bij een pier aan de kust.

Fifteen prints by Jules Guiette are currently represented in institutional holdings, confirming his documentation within the historical record of 19th-century printmaking. These works are held in the permanent collection of the Rijksmuseum. Because these older works often enter the public domain, many of Guiette’s historical prints are available today as high-quality prints or downloadable artwork, facilitating ongoing study and appreciation of his oeuvre.
