- Frédéric Théodore Faber, a Belgian landscape and genre painter, born at Brussels in 1782, was first instructed by his father, but in 1799 he went to Antwerp, and studied under Balthasar Paul Ommeganck.
- He afterwards established at Brussels a china manufactory, and abandoned painting on canvas for painting on porcelain.
- He also etched upwards of a hundred plates of landscapes and animals, some after his own designs, and others after Ommeganck, De Roy, and Van Assche.
- He died in 1844. A significant set of pieces painted by this virtuoso is exhibited at the Museum of Decorative Arts François Duesberg (Mons - Belgium).
