This sculpture depicts the painter Emile Claus (1849-1924), holding a palette. It was created by Yvonne Serruys. On either side of the artist are two of his works: "The Orchard" and "The Flax Garden." Early in his career, he was influenced by Renoir and Monet. He later became a leading figure of Impressionism in Belgium. The sculpture faces the botanical garden.
