Louis De Saeger (1908–1999) “Winter in Bruges”

Dimensions:
70 x 60 cm (without frame)
90 x 80 cm (with frame)

Condition: Ready to hang

Atmospheric winter cityscape of Bruges by Belgian painter Louis De Saeger, capturing a serene moment of daily life as skaters glide under soft evening light. Snow blankets the rooftops and bridges, while figures walk, skate, and sledge through the historic heart of the city.

De Saeger is known for his evocative depictions of landscapes, city views of Bruges, Dendermonde, Deinze, Beernem, and Ghent.
His style blends traditional realism with an impressionistic softness, especially in his winter and river scenes.
