Frédéric François Albert Braconier (10 August 1901 – 10 November 1985) was a Belgian artist from the Wallonia whose œuvre comprises at least 150 paintings and monotypes of considerable variety both in subject and style. He painted landscapes, city views and portraits and created numerous abstract compositions. Braconier was active for more than sixty years, artistically “reinventing” himself several times. The diversity of his works, bearing witness both to his curiosity and his willingness to change, makes him an interesting artist.
