De Vriendt brothers

The De Vriendt brothers, Juliaen Joseph (1842-1935) and Albrecht François Lieven (1843-1900), were Belgian painters, both born at Ghent, sons of a decorative painter.

The two brothers were close friends, and their works show marked signs of resemblance. Having received their early training from their father at Ghent, they removed to Antwerp, where they soon yielded to the influence of the painter Baron Henrik Leys.

Albrecht became director of the Academy of Fine Arts at Antwerp and was succeeded by his brother.
