Engelbert van Siclers or Engelbert Lieven van Siclers[1] (Gent, 6 June 1725 – 24 June 1796) was a Flemish painter who is known for his cityscapes of Gent.[2][3]

Life

Engelbert van Siclers was born in Gent as the son of Jacques van Siclers, lawyer on the Council of Flanders and Anne Odevaere, whose father, Martin Odevaere, had also been a lawyer on the same council. The Siclers were an old aristocratic family, which was of Lombard-Jewish ancestry and had played a prominent role in Ghent in the 14th to 16th century.[4]

Engelbert studied law and practised painting only as an amateur as he was independently wealthy. He did not join the local Guild of St Luke. It is in the capacity of "retiree" that he joined in 1780 the Gent assembly of notables known as the Collace.[3] He was also a deacon of the fishmongers' guild.[4]

He was a faithful contributor to the Gent Academy for drawing, painting and architecture, where in 1782 and again in 1790 he was the patron of a pupil enrolled in drawing classes. He married Anne Bernardine Mechelynck.[4]

Work

Engelbert van Siclers created mainly paintings and drawings of city views, especially from Gent. He excelled at arranging groups of figures in festive clothes. His works are important as documents of the history of Gent.[4] His works are preserved in the library of the University of Ghent. Four paintings by van Siclers, one signed and two monogrammed "S," are in the Ghent City Museum.[3]
