The Gust Of Wind Achil Leys
Artist: Achiel Leys 1873-1953
He was initially his father's pupil. He studied first at the technical school in Ghent and later at the Academy in the same city. After his studies, he initially worked in various religious art workshops, following in his father's footsteps. The distinction between the works of father and son sometimes arises, as with the war memorial on the wall of the Filature du Rabot in Ghent. He also created his own creations. For example, he created a bronze "Saint Michael in armor crushing the dragon" on the Saint Michael Bridge in Ghent. He also designed church and funerary statues, which are mainly scattered throughout northern France. After the First World War, he established himself as a freelance sculptor in the Van Akenstraat in Ghent.
