About the piece
Painted by Albrecht De Vriendt in 1889, this striking portrait depicts the Dean of the Armed Guild of Saint George in meticulous detail. The subject stands confidently in bi-colored hose and a red tunic, wielding a crossbow and a shield bearing the St. George's cross, all set against a rich, textured gold backdrop that evokes the opulence of late Gothic portraiture.
