years, he painted in a surrealistic style, replete with dream visions and hallucinations. He died in Ghent on 23 September 1939.

Major retrospectives were held in 1962 (Brussels) and 1984 (Utrecht). On the sixtieth anniversary of his death, in 1999, a large exhibition was held in Ostend with, for the first time, his illustrations.
