Camille Wauters (13 November 1856 – 10 September 1919)[1][2] was a Belgian painter.

Life and work

Camille Wauters was born in Temse, East Flanders, Belgium, on 13 November 1856.[2] He was a landscape painter.[3][4] Wauters was taught by Ferdinand de Braekeleer the Elder.[5] He studied at the Académie Julian of Paris, where he improved his technique.[3] His talent and studies would have allowed him to reach greater fame, but Wauters avoided exhibitions, wholly living for his art.[6]

He died in Lokeren on 10 September 1919.[2]
