Bernard de Wilde
Bernard de Wilde (1691 – 1772)[1] was a Southern Netherlandish architect.[2]
He carried out most of his work in Ghent.[3] Together with David 't Kindt, he is the most important representative of Ghent Rococo. His works are marked by a strong French influence.[3][4]
Some of his works include:
- Pakhuis on the Korenmarkt (Louis XIV style)
- Lakenmetershuis on the Vrijdagmarkt
- College building of the Augustinians, now Academy of Fine Arts
- Hotel Schamp (1721) (presumably after his design)
- Hotel Falligan on the Kouter (1755)
- Saint Sebastian Theater on the Kouter (1737)
