When he embarked on his career as a painter, Wouters was known primarily for his sculptures. He was regularly invited to take part in Salon Exhibitions in Belgium. When he could he sent bronze fgures, but often they were plaster casts. Edgard Tytgat modelled for a number of statues, among them this fgure ‘The Man from Bruges (portrait of Edgard Tytgat)’.
