OK here goes... The picture you bought is by Anton Pieck, dutch artist 1895-1987. It actually is the cover of a book by the dutch Lode Van Der Schelde (not sure if he was dutch or belgian). The translation would go something like this : There, you have a people (a nation) on their knees, (Daar ligt een volk geknield) by Lode Van Der Schelde (door Lode Van Der Schelde). Lode is the shortening of Lodewijk, or in french, Louis.
