Northern France, ancient or modern? Modern time, he's not a outlier at all.
Typical, I wouldn't say it that way, but I've already seen Flemish people with this kind of face but with a more defined jawline and blondish but with the same horsey face.
I think it's quite variable. Some families have their own phenotype.
His teeth, however, remind me of an English caricature.
Some other northern French people have a more compact face, alpinoid (dinaro shifted sometime) but with a nose halfway between straight and upturned, a jaw halfway between oval and square, a more pronounced eyebrow arch, hairier, lighter (blondish to light chesnut/brown) to darker hair (close to black, not brown/chestnut, the beard is -sometime- more light), eyes of variable color (gray to blue, light brown to hazel, rarely dark brown but it happens). The pigmentation is quite variable so it's quite irrelevant for me (even if it can affect appearance), some people can have quite similar features without the same pigmentation.
It is close to an alpinoid type but with different other influences I imagine
But there are people who have this type of face in my paternal great-grandfather's (non-Flemish) village (Northern France) of 600 inhabitants.
My paternal great-grandfather, however, did not have this phenotype, was least fatty, but with a close pigmentation (light brown eyes and chesnut hair color or brown not blackish hair color).
However, of the 17 children of my paternal great-great-grandparents (from whom I inherited the last name), they have relatively variable phenotypes (pigmentation, facial features), so it is difficult to determine establish a “typical” phenotype.
My paternal great-grandfather (native to the Northern French town Gouy-Saint-André):
