The Milk Farmer is a remarkable marble sculpture by renowned artist Marc de Vos. As a key sculptor from Brussels in the 17th Century, de Vos made significant contributions to the city's artistic landscape. Alongside notable figures like Pierre van Dievoet, Jean Cosyn, Antoine Pastorana, Jean van Delen, and Corneille van Nerven, de Vos played a leading role as an artist and architect in Brussels. His impressive work on the Grand-Place of Brussels and the Maison du Renard showcases his exceptional skill. Beyond his architectural achievements, de Vos also created furniture for churches and sculptures like The Milk Farmer, which is now proudly displayed by the Grand Market.
