Got the OG Cassonade manneke

  1. Since some people asked, here’s a bit of story.

    The painter’s wife (who also took part in making the painting) is my dad’s cousin.

    They specialise in hyper realistic paintings and have done a lot of posters and portraits. She’s done political personalities.

    10-20 years ago they were very low on money and sold a lot of their originals, which my mom and dad bought some of to help them, including this one.

    Afaik there’s no other version of the painting, I have no idea why there’s a 7 on the back.

    My dad regularly orders portraits of his grand children to support her.

    If you want to support her, here is her website. It’s very outdated but I think she’s still actively maintaining it.

  2. This post will be remembered. I feel so honoured to have witnessed this historic moment
