Jean-Baptiste de Béthune (architect) : ウィキペディア英語版
Jean-Baptiste Bethune

Jean-Baptiste Bethune was a Belgian architect, artisan and designer who played a pivotal role in the Belgian and Catholic Gothic Revival movement. He was called by some the "''Pugin of Belgium''".〔William Henry James Weale, in: ''Building News'', XXXVI, 1879, p. 350〕
==Life==
He was born in Kortrijk in 1821 in a wealthy Flemish family of French origin. He and his relatives were fervent Catholics, and many were active in politics and civil service. The family which was originally called "Bethune" was in 1845 granted nobility by the Belgian King and added the preposition "de" (some of them took the name "de Béthune-Sully"), in the 20th century, to underline their noble status. However, this great architect never used the particule.
Bethune first studied law at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven and later embarked on a career in politics civil service at the provincial council of West Flanders in Bruges. He received his basic artistic training at the "Academie voor Schone Kunsten" in Kortrijk (his teachers were L. Verhaegen and Jules Victor Génisson). Paul Lauters introduced him to landscape painting while the sculptor C. H. Geerts (1807–1855) - himself a pioneer of the Gothic Revival style - made him familiar with sculpture. In 1842-1843 and in 1850 he visited England and met Augustus Welby Pugin (1812–1852) the advocate of the Gothic Revival in England and an enthusiast Catholic as well.
The encounter with Pugin and his creations further stimulated Bethune's interest in architecture and applied arts. In imitation of Pugin and his followers, Bethune developed the idea that an artistic revival of the arts of the "Christian" world of the Middle Ages could inspire a new profoundly Christian/Catholic society. At home Bethune was encouraged by canon C. Carton to become involved in the creation of genuinely ‘Christian Art’. Gradually he began to make designs himself. In 1854 he even set up his own stained-glass workshop, advised by J. Hardman (1812–67), Pugin’s stained-glass manufacturer.
In 1862 he was a co-founder of the Saint-Luke schools. These schools were opened as a catholic counterpart to the official Academies and trained architects in the religious spirit of the Gothic tradition. The first permanent Saint-Luke school opened in Ghent in 1863. These schools also offered an education for artisans that could work with stained glass, wood carving, painting, gold- and silverwork... The aim was to train craftsmen that could cope with the overall decoration of a newly built, fully decorated, Gothic church. As a teacher and as a patron of the archaeological society of the "Gilde de Saint-Thomas et de Saint-Luc" founded in 1863, Bethune had a decisive influence on the evolution of the Gothic Revival style in Belgium. Among those he taught or influenced were the architects Joris Helleputte and Louis Cloquet. Abroad, he maintained contacts and was appreciated by contemporaries such as Pierre Cuypers, Edward Welby Pugin, August Reichensperger and Edward von Steinle.
