About the piece
Painted in 1913 by Edouard de Jans, this striking oil portrait depicts Justin Peeters-Lacroix in an official uniform. The subject's commanding presence is underscored by his impressive white mustache and an array of medals, set against a moody, atmospheric background that emphasizes the luminosity of the figure.
