Médard Tytgat
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Médard Tytgat (1871–1948) was a Belgian painter, lithographer, book illustrator and poster artist known for portraits, nudes, and landscapes. He was born in Bruges. From 1890 to 1894, he studied at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts of Brussels with Jean-François Portaels. He died in Brussels.
Tytgat was considered a mediocre painter, but was more highly regarded as an illustrator.[1] His younger brother, Edgard Tytgat, was also an artist. A grandson, Médard-Siegfried Tytgat (1916–1997), was a painter.[2]
