[Schoten], BAI, [2008]. 272 pp. Col. & b./w. ills. Orig. hardcover (blind stamped burgundy red cloth), d./j. 4to. A monograph on Eugeen Van Mieghem (October 1, 1875 - March 24, 1930). He was an artist born in the port city of Antwerp, Belgium. He is inextricably linked to the city of Antwerp. As a boy, Van Mieghem was confronted with the harsh reality of life by the water. Recurring themes in his oeuvre were life in and around the port of Antwerp and the nightlife on De Keyserlei. For Van Mieghem, observation was his guiding principle, his social awareness his driving force. - Text in Dutch.
