pierre alechinsky
Pierre Alechinsky (Brussels, 1927) L'affaire du bois de Meillant, 1990 Acrylic on paper mounted on canvas 60 x 100 cm Signed and dated lower right: Alechinsky, signed, titled, and dated on the reverse: L’AFFAIRE DU BOIS DE MEILLANT 1990 Alechinsky Provenance: acquired directly from the artist Exhibitions: Alès, Musée Pierre André Benoit, Pierre Alechinsky, peinture - livres, June-October 1990, n° 42; Salzburg, Rupertinum, Pierre Alechinsky: Reisende Tusche, May-July 1991, n° 28 Born in 1927, Pierre Alechinsky moved to France in 1951 where he became a part of the CoBrA movement, sharing the same passion for the freedom of form and colour as other artists belonging to this group. After travelling around Japan in 1955, he became interested in Asian artistic techniques, ultimately adopting a style which incorporated the processes of Japanese calligraphy. The incorporation of calligraphic signage is apparent, set up against a blue border which elegantly frames the central composition. The title provides a playful backstory for the figures in the painting, whose wide eyes and claw-like hands draw us into a thrilling aesthetic narrative.

jan brueghel the younger
Jan Brueghel The Younger (Antwerp, 1601-1678) Bouquet of flowers in a Wan-Li porcelain vase, late 1620s Oil on panel 56 x 40.5 cm Certificate from Dr. Klaus Ertz Provenance: De Jonckheere, 1985; private collection Symbolising the ties between China and Europe in the seventeenth century, this elegant floral composition bears witness to the talent of Jan Brueghel the Younger. One of the finest floral painters of his time, he combined an unaffected opulence with sober compositions. The finesse of the flowers and the harmonious colours are the hallmarks of his delicate hand and brilliant observation. Working for many years in the family workshop, which he took over upon his father's death, Jan Brueghel the Younger was able to familiarise himself with the various models. Although his style was influenced by his father, he nevertheless took liberties, as is the case here in this Bouquet of flowers in a Wan-Li Porcelain Vase.

Heutink Ikonen
Ascension of Christ Russia (Yaroslavl), 17th century Egg tempera with gold leaf on a wooden panel surfaced with gesso and linen 72 x 48.5 cm This monumental icon shows an unusual division of planes. In the upper register, Christ is depicted in a green mandorla that is carried to heaven by two angels. The footprints in the earth beneath the mandorla show how Christ was still standing on the earth shortly before. The disciples left beneath gaze and point upwards in wonder. Noticeably, the disciples are standing before the openings of a cave, a reminder of Christ's resurrection from the grave. Directly below Christ, the Mother of God is depicted, flanked by radiant white angels. She bows her head slightly and raises her hands in prayer and reception - a pose reminiscent of the Annunciation. Just as Mary received her divine child at that time, she now leaves him to return to his heavenly father.

Galerie Florence de Voldère
Cornelis Van Cleve (et Atelier) (1527-Antwerp circa 1581) Adoration des Mages Oil on panel 101.5 x 77.5 cm Fils et élève du grand Maître Anversois Joos van Cleve (1485-1541), il a sans doute été très actif au sein de l’atelier paternel entre 1535 et 1540. Son style se rapprochant de celui de son père, il est encore difficile aujourd'hui pour certaines œuvres, de discerner la main du père de celle du fils. Maître à Anvers, il est doyen de la Gilde en 1541 au décès de Joos. Son caractère ombrageux et ses affinités protestantes le font quitter sa ville natale et émigrer en Angleterre où il recherche le patronage de Philippe II d’Espagne. Ses peintures sophistiquées et délicates témoignent aussi de l’influence de Léonard de Vinci. Cette composition dérive du tableau de Cornelis van Cleve aujourd’hui conservé au Musée des beaux-arts d’Anvers. MUSÉES: ANVERS, COLOGNE, DRESDE, PHILADELPHIE, ST P
