Augustus Wynantz (1795–1848): View of the Tempelhof in Ghent, oil on canvas, dated 1833 Work: 35 x 27 cm Frame: 53 x 45 cm The Ghent 'Tempelhof' was initially a possession of the Knights Templar and subsequently a base for the Knights of Malta. The 'Tempelhof' was a moated site centrally located within the city block formed by Sint-Margrietstraat, Dobbelslot, Lange Schipgracht, and Tempelhof. The moated site remained a visible feature of the cityscape until around 1794, after which it was demolished in several phases. (see: L. Charles, 'Van ridders, rovers en rabauwen. Het Gentse tempelhof, 1200-1794', in: Handelingen der Maatschappij voor Geschiedenis en Oudheidkunde te Gent, 2009, LXIII (1), pp. 169-199). Augustus Wynantz - a painter active at the court in The Hague between 1846 and 1850 - might possibly be identified with Jean-Baptiste Wynantz, according to Dr. Tim De Doncker and Pieter-Jan Lachaert (see: Tim De Doncker & Pieter-Jan Lachaert, 'Een kleurrijke figuur: Jean-Baptiste Joseph Wynantz (1795-na 1829)', in: Kleurrijk. Jean Baptist Wynantz & Gent omstreeks 1820, Ghent, 2015, pp. 19-26). The work presented only reinforces this hypothesis.
