I'm too ashamed to say how I came to find this picture, but I did find it on the Internet. This photograph, probably taken round 1985, shows two Belgian politicians.On the left, Jean Gol: someone who used to be one of the most prominent politicians in Belgium in the 1970s, 1980s and early 1990s, leader of the Walloon Parti Réformateur Libéral (PRL - liberal party). He died in September 1995.
On the right, his apprentice (we might say), Didier Reynders, at that time a successful young laywer and opportunist who made his way to the high spheres of political power thanks to Jean Gol. Didier Reynders is Belgium's current Minister of Finance.
My point was just to make fun of Jean Gol's combover: doesn't he look ridiculous?
