Eekhoud was born in Anvers, and though the town was in Flanders, he grew up, like all the middle-classes of the period, speaking French.
Orphaned at a early age, he led a rather unsettled childhood, educated at the expense of an uncle who died while his nephew was still an adolescent.
Eekhoud then joined the École Royale Militaire but was expelled for unspecified disciplinary reasons after seven months.

 Paul Jean Clays (1819 - 1900) - Rehs Galleries, Inc.
It was through these gatherings that “Clays learned much more by his conversations with these enlightened men than by his visits to the atelier of his master.” (Eekhoud, 499) In 1856, Clays married Quételet’s daughter, Marie-Isaure, who unfortunately died just eight years later.
His paintings had come to be revered for their fresh and truthful qualities, which were in contrast to many other painters who relied too heavily on an idealized version of the reality of the sea.
It was written at the time that “For the first time a sincere painter applies himself to showing the sound joy of his eyes.” (Eekhoud, 502) After a productive career and several awards, such as the Order of Leopold, Clays died in Brussels on February 10th, 1900.
