Emile Edwin Ganz

Emile Edwin Ganz is a Swiss-Belgian painter, specializing in the representation of horses and military scenes. In his early days, Ganz mainly drew military scenes, a genre that only a few 19th-century artists mastered. His masterpiece in the genre is The Attack of Scherpenheuvel, a report on the maneuvers of the grenadiers in 1894. In 1901 he entered the service of Princess Clémentine as a painter; he held this position until 1903. In 1903, he also brushed some of King Leopold II's horses. From that moment, he was no longer interested only in the horse itself, but in the regional draft horse, as well as in the people and the rural world: newspaper sellers, old horses in a depot, the harvest in the fields , beet harvest, landscape. Many of his designs for military uniforms were printed in color lithograph.
