Jan Van Campenhout ( 1907 – 1972) - paysage de neige

Oil on canvas depicting a snow-covered landscape, signed

Jan Van Campenhout (Aalst, December 16, 1907 – Snaaskerke, April 19, 1972)

Belgian figurative painter and graphic artist of the mid-20th century.

Active from around 1925 to 1972, he lived and worked on Van Iseghemlaan in Ostend in the 1950s and 1960s, where he regularly exhibited at the Art Deco café “La Coupole.”
His subjects included clown figures, seascapes, landscapes, café interiors and lively street scenes, rendered in a sketch-like style that captures the era’s optimistic atmosphere.
He published an album of 25 reproductions of pen-and-ink drawings entitled Historische Monumenten & Gebouwen (Anderlecht, Aarschot, Zoutleeuw…).
His style is often compared to that of Jacques Callaert of Middelkerke; Dominique Vertenten was one of his pupils.
