Work Description

Christiane Vleugels was commissioned by the Belgian military to paint official portraits of King Boudewijn and Queen Fabiola, affirming her exceptional mastery in portraiture. In Bellator, her skill shines through the warrior’s sculpted physique, where every muscular detail conveys both power and aesthetic grace.


The figure is deep in contemplation, poised with a quiet intensity and unwavering resolve. Here, physical strength, discipline, and inner fortitude converge, capturing the essence of a true warrior.
