La situazione economica disastrosa di Gand nel XVI e XVII secolo cambiò nel XVIII secolo a causa di un'azione criminale di Lieven Bauwens. Egli contrabbandò il telai britannico, sotto il blocco napoleonico. Così fu indirettamente responsabile di molta prosperità per gli industriali, ma di molta povertà per i lavoratori. Al suo tempo era così impopolare a Gand che trascorse gran parte del suo tempo in Francia. Ora ha effettivamente una statua.
