A. Dieudonné Jacobs (1887–1967) was a Belgian painter best known for his landscapes of the Ardennes marshes. He studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Liège, later lived in Spa and on the French Riviera, and his style is strongly Impressionistic. Jacobs died in 1967 in La Garde, southern France, and his work is preserved by the Association des Amis de Dieudonné Jacobs.

“Each of these crosses can tell its own story and what prompted people to erect “their” cross at this point. (...) These wayside crosses were erected as visible signs and attract the attention of many people. The cross is a symbol of life. It stands as a sign of our Christian hope and wants to direct our gaze to Jesus Christ, who has overcome death (...). The cross is part of our life as it was in the life of Jesus.
So I wish that many people … visit the crosses, whether as places of stillness and breathing space before God, whether as places for community gatherings, prayer and praise to God.”
(Text source: Dean Rainald M. Ollig
