Jacques Gommers (1915-2000) - Vlaamse boer met hond

A tough painting of a Flemish farmer with a cap with his loyal dog, a boxer, in front of a white Flemish village with houses and a church. Jacques Gommers was educated at the academy of Mechelen with teachers such as Gustave van de Woestyne, Theo Blickx The influence of the Woestijne is clearly visible in this painting of the farmer with a cap with his large working hands. Gustave vd Woestyne liked to paint the farmer in the landscape. The municipality of Schaerbeek has a lot of work by Gommers.
