"Commissie voor reorganisatie van de Antwerpse Academie" is an 1879 etching by Charles Verlat (1824-1890) depicting a group of men seated around a table, likely a committee discussing the reorganization of the Antwerp Academy. Verlat's use of detail and expressive linework create a sense of realism and immediacy, capturing the serious focus and intensity of the scene. The piece serves as a historical record of an important event in the Antwerp art scene and provides a glimpse into the inner workings of the academy's reorganization.
