Jef LAMBEAUX (1852-1908). The Two Friends, first half of the 20th century. Bronze, 14 x 8 cm. In 1883, Jef Lambeaux was a founding member of the Brussels avant-garde group Les Vingt. His work Le Faune mordu was shown at the Brussels (1897) and Paris (1900) World Fairs, but was at the center of a nude controversy at the 1905 World Fair in Liège, where it was covered by a veil. Another major work: Les Passions humaines (1886), a marble bas-relief that was incorporated into Victor Horta's pavilion in the Parc du Cinquantenaire, for which he was awarded a medal of honor at the 1900 Universal Exhibition in Paris. He was made a member of the Académie royale de Belgique in 1903.
