A. E. Godfrey Guffins was born July 22, 1823, died July 11, 1901.
He was a Belgian painter.
He is best known for his monumental religious and historical murals.
When he was only 15, he was admitted to the Royal Academy of Fine Arts where he studied under Nicaise de Keyser.
He later took a trip to Italy to see the works of Michelangelo and Raphael.
