Flemish art or collection cabinet with paintings of Biblical scenes. Belgium, circa 1650. Flemish Cabinet on later base with torsted legs. Biblical scenes. A flap at the top with a mirror in the middle. Behind the door a tiled floor and pillars of ivory and mirrors. This art or collection cabinet is a good example of a luxury piece of furniture such as that manufactured in Flanders and especially in Antwerp in the 17th century. In these types of cabinets were collectibles such as coins, perfume bottles, shells, jewelry etc. keep. Many of these art cabinets not only have many drawers but also a so-called ‘aedicula’. This Latin word means "little house" or " House of God." Made from native fruit wood, probably pear wood which is then polished to make it black and look like Ebony. The paintings on the doors and drawers represent the following New Testament stories or persons: (behind the relevant story there is always one reference to a gospel text; in some cases the same story is in several Gospels) if there is no textual reference, this means that the scene in question is a biblical concept but not a story in a certain chapter. The base of the art cabinet was manufactured in the 19th century. Provenance: Private collection, The Netherlands With CITES document. H. 127 cm W. 63 cm D. 38 cm

Gerard Ter Borch (Zwolle 1617 - Deventer 1681) Portrait of a Man with a Black Hat Around 1650 Oil on Oval Panel 19.9 × 16.5 cm Gerard ter Borch (1617–1681) was one of the most refined painters of the Dutch seventeenth century. Born in Zwolle, he received his first training from his father, Gerard ter Borch I, within a household where drawing and copying formed an essential part of daily artistic practice. Several of his siblings also became artists, contributing to a rich familial archive that documents the development of the Ter Borch workshop. After extensive travels through Amsterdam, Haarlem, London, Madrid and Münster, Ter Borch settled in Deventer, where he became a respected member of the city’s elite. Ter Borch is celebrated for his intimate genre scenes and portraits, distinguished by a subtle palette, delicate handling of light, and a keen sensitivity to gesture and expression. His paintings are marked by elegance, psychological depth, and exceptional technical skill, particularly in the rendering of skin and textiles. This portrait of a man wearing a black hat, painted on an oval panel, exemplifies these qualities. The sitter faces the viewer directly and meets our gaze with quiet self‑confidence, creating a sense of immediacy and silent dialogue. His restrained pose and understated attire suggest dignity without ostentation. The refined and harmonious colour scheme, composed of carefully balanced tones, is characteristic of Ter Borch’s portrait practice. The subtle fall of light gently models the face, giving the features clarity and depth without strong contrasts. The smooth surface of the panel enhances the precision of Ter Borch’s brushwork and contributes to the intimate character of the work. Rather than a display of status, the portrait becomes a concentrated study of presence and inner life. We are grateful to Marjorie Wieseman, who endorsed the attribution on the basis of a photograph, and to Guido Jansen, who confirmed the attribution after examining the painting in person.
