Charles Verlat

`La force prime le droit` (club-might is right)
oil on canvas, 150 x 114 cm.
unsigned, to be dated late 1870s

note: Charles Verlat was the teacher of Vincent van Gogh in Antwerp in 1886. His influence on young Vincent van Gogh is strikingly obvious in this, frightening topical, oil sketch. (compare Vincent van Gogh `Potato Eaters`, 1885)
