Jean-Gilles-Marie-Joseph Schamp (1765-1839), of Ghent, Belgium, added to his surname the name d'Aveschoot, one of the important seigneuries in the commune of Lembeke acquired by his father in 1781. Schamp d'Aveschoot, an honorary member of the Société des Beaux-Arts de Gand, and a director of the Académie gantoise from 1810, devoted all his life to collecting paintings. His collection of 250 paintings, including 58 by Sir Peter Paul Rubens, auctioned in September 1840, brought 214,825 francs. The principal buyer was M. Tencé, art dealer of Lille, France, with 55 other paintings going to England.--Académie royale des sciences, des lettres et des beaux-arts de Belgique. Biographie nationale, t. 21, col. 582-587.
