Guillaume Geefs Bronze Sculpture of Peter Paul Rubens, 1842
About the Item
“The Neo-classic School… The six Geefs brothers were among the most noted sculptors of the classic school in Belgium, and of these the most gifted was the eldest, Guillaume Geefs (1805-1883). In his style something of the exuberance of the rococo remains to enlivened the academic calm. He produced a great number of tombs, pulpits, statues, busts, and groups; among them the statue of General Beliard, the tomb of Count Frederic de Merode in Ste. Gudule, and the statue of Leopold I, and the romantic and sentimental group of a nude woman and a lion, all in Brussels, may be mentioned.” -“A History of Sculpture” by Harold North Fowler
