Great Painter Wertz and His Macabre Genius in Brussels

Antoine Wiertz, born in Dinant, becomes famed for ghastly subjects and a wish to paint for posterity. His best works, such as The Greeks and Trojans, display morbid imagination and brutal vitality, and his museum in Brussels houses his legacy rather than foreign loans. He refused money, aimed to unite his productions under one roof, and his studio became the Brussels Wiertz Museum after government support.

Secret Died With Him and His Hidden Art

Wiertz pursued painting sculpture and engraving and wrote a famed Eulogy of Rubens. He labored in chemical research, inventing a secret oil painting process called peinture Male. His health declined as he pursued these studies, and he died unmarried after bitter controversy. His last wish to be cremated in his studio garden was resisted by the Government.
