JAN VAN CAMPENHOUT (1907 - 1972) - "Parigi - Champs-Élysées - Arco di Trionfo - vivace scena di strada al tramonto" - olio su tela - firmato - dipinto di grandi dimensioni - 80 x 100 cm Jan Van Campenhout (Aalst, 16 December 1907 – Snaaskerke, 19 April 1972) was a Belgian figurative painter and graphic artist of the mid-20th century. As a painter, he depicted clowns, seascapes, landscapes, café interiors and bustling street scenes, in which he skilfully captured the optimistic atmosphere of the era. He published an album of reproductions of 25 pen-and-ink drawings under the title ‘Monuments and Historic Buildings’ (Anderlecht, Aarschot, Zoutleeuw…). He lived and worked on Van Iseghemlaan in Ostend during the 1950s and 1960s and often exhibited there at the Art Deco café ‘La Coupole’.
