Max Léon MOREAU (1902-1992)
Max Léon Moreau (1902-1992) is a Belgian painter and watercolorist, born September 2, 1902 in Soignies and died September 7, 1992 in Grenade. Son of painter Henri Moreau, he studied in Brussels, then devoted himself to portrait and genre scenes with orientalist influence.
