With every stroke, he invites us to ponder over what might have been lost or forgotten in history. In Tivoli, Sebastiaen unveils another side of ancient Rome with his depiction of Roman remains amidst nature's embrace. These serene landscapes remind us that even in decay, there is beauty waiting to be discovered. Through Vranck Sebastiaen's artistry, we are reminded that history lives on through its ruins.
