Biography edit
David de Noter is the son and pupil of Jean-Baptiste de Noter (1786-1855), designer and architect, and of Carola Maya (1793-?). He is the grandson of the painter Pieter-Frans De Noter (1748-1830).
After staying in France and more particularly in the Parisian suburbs, at Vésinet he left with his family for Algeria where he died in poverty.
Personal life edit
On November 25, 1845, David de Noter married Clémence Wauters (1823-1895) in Malines. From this union were born seven children: Léon-David (1848-1892), Henri-Louis (1848-1868), Marie-Henriette (1850-1904), Paul-Alexandre (1851-1858), Raphaël-Ferdinand (1856-1936), Albert-Clément (1858-1924) and Georges-Philippe (1859-1930).
The dates of his life are not completely clear. Some sources report his date of birth as 1818, and some as 1825. The same for the death date. There are three possible dates: sometime in 1875, 21 January 1892 or 28 January of 1892.
Artworks edit
He painted still lifes with flowers, vegetables, seafood, dead game and poultry and fruit, but also kitchen and salon interiors and genre scenes, almost always with a strong focus on a still life element within the scene. De Noter painted in a meticulously realistic style, but with a distinctly romantic atmosphere. During his later years, when he lived in Algiers, he also painted faces from there, such as the Kasbah of Algeria. He collaborated with Henri Leys (1815-1869), Gustav Koller, Louis Tuerlinckx (1820-1894) and Alfred Stevens (1823-1906).
