The contradiction between the sedate middle class life that he lived and the art that he produced was most notable in his attire. Never seen in public without his small black bowler hat, this painter used the very same accessory to portray the mundane life of the European middle classes. Born in Lessines in 1881, this painter is famous for pioneering the artistic style known as "magic realism" later adopted by George Grosz, but is more widely known as a surrealist. FTP, name the artist of "Son of Man", "The Fall", and "Madame Recamier de David" known to some quiz-bowlers only as "that Belgian surrealist."
