Art enthusiasts were treated to a special showing of paintings from Belgium during Friday night's Art Walk at the Selma Art Guild.
The paintings were brought to America in 1947 by the granddaughter of the artist, Gernand Coenderart, and she took them off the walls of her home to share them with her fellow Selmians. Most of the paintings depict rural life in her native land.
