Arthur Willaert (1875-1942), one of the three painting brothers from Ghent: Arthur, the animal painter Raph-Robert and the more famous city painter Ferdinand. Arthur initially chose a career in music, but at the encouragement of his brothers he became an accomplished landscape and marine painter. He was a founding member of the Fédération Nationale des Artistes, Peintres et Sculpteurs (Ghent, 1.10.1922). To distinguish himself from his brothers, Arthur signed Willaert with the artificial Trealliw, the anagram of his surname.
