About
Les XIII was a Belgian artist society founded in Brussels in 1891 by a group of painters seeking to exhibit their work independently of the official Salon. The group, named for its original thirteen members, championed modern styles including luminism and symbolism, fostering a distinct circle of progressive artists in late 19th-century Belgium.
