Guillaume Geefs

Guillaume Geefs (10 September 1805 – 19 January 1883〔(ArtFact. )〕), also Willem Geefs, was a Belgian sculptor. Although known primarily for his monumental works and public portraits of statesmen and nationalist figures, he also explored mythological subject matter, often with an erotic theme.
==Life==
Geefs was born at Antwerp, the eldest of six brothers in a family of sculptors, the best-known of whom are Joseph Geefs (1808–1885, winner of the Prix de Rome in 1836) and Jean Geefs (1825–1860, and winner of the prize in 1846). Guillaume first studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp under the late–Flemish Baroque sculptor Jan Frans van Geel and his son, Jan Lodewijk van Geel, who was also a sculptor.〔"Jan Frans van Geel", (Art Encyclopedia. )〕 He completed his training under Jean-Etienne Ramey at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and began exhibiting his work in 1828.
In 1829, Geefs traveled to Italy. When he returned to Antwerp, he began teaching at the art academy. During the 1830s, he executed the colossal work ''Victims of the Revolution'' at Brussels, as well as numerous statues and busts. In 1836, he married Isabelle Marie Françoise Corr, a Brussels-born painter of Irish descent known professionally as Fanny Geefs.〔"Geefs, Guillaume (1805–1883)", (Philatelia.net. )〕 In the mid-19th century, the sculptor Guillaume-Joseph Charlier was an assistant to him and his brother Joseph.〔"Charlier, Guillaume(-Joseph)", (ArtNet ) based on the ''Grove Dictionary of Art''.〕
The Geefs family played a leading role in the craze for public sculpture that followed Belgian independence in the 1830s,〔"Sculpture et des arts décoratifs du XVIe au début du XXe siècle", (LowCountriesSculpture.org. )〕 producing several propagandistic monuments that emphasized a "historical continuity of the southern Low Countries in the new independent state."〔Léon E. Lock, (LowCountriesSculpture.org. "A brief history of the sculpture in the present-day Netherlands and Belgium" )〕
