walter sauer
Walter Sauer (Brussels 1889-1927 Algiers) Pensive woman, circa 1925 Mixed media 78.5 x 61.3 cm Signed upper left 'WS Walter Sauer' Provenance: private collection A unique, elegant style characterises the art of Walter Sauer, an artist who, in his short lifetime, lit up the Belgian art scene in the first twenty years of the twentieth century. Sauer's hand has a sensitivity to form that is characteristic of decorators; reality, in his eyes, is stripped of that which is superfluous, showing the noble essence of form. This essentiality, combined with an absolutely personal technique, makes Sauer's works instantly recognisable. The figure of the woman is the leitmotif of the artist, who combines his vision of the model with a series of cultural references ranging from Japanese art to Western tradition.

Ides et Calendres, Switzerland, revised and expanded by Marie du Bouchet and Gustave de Staël, n° 189, p. 209 Exhibition: Nicolas de Staël, Musée Réattu, Arles, June-September 1958, n° 18 The year 1949 was a crucial period for Nicolas de Staël: he continued to explore and refine his style, marking an important transition towards painting that would become more fluid and expressive. Among his notable works this year is this 'Composition', which reflects his continued use of thick layers of paint and his extensive play with materials, moving from impasto to knife painting. For Nicolas de Staël, although abstract his paintings are 'images of life', his coloured masses generate vibrations. Lastly, this painting has always been kept in private hands until now, and was never presented at auctions.
Jan Muller Antiques
Netherlandish School, circa 1500 Triptych with the Crucifixion and scenes from the Passion Oil on panel 51 x 36.5 cm (closed) 51 x 73 cm (open) The gallery is grateful to Dr. Didier Martens for his expertise The Crucifixion with Saint Jerome and Saint Dominic and Scenes from the Passion, Original frame. This triptych depicts Christ on the Cross, flanked by the sorrowful figures of the Virgin Mary and Saint John the Evangelist. Kneeling at the foot of the Cross are Saint Jerome and Saint Dominic, the latter holding a rosary. In the landscape beyond unfold several scenes from Christ’s Passion, culminating in the Crucifixion. This version follows the composition preserved in the Scottish National Gallery, Edinburgh, which originally formed one half of a diptych. Its companion panel, depicting The Coronation of the Virgin, is held in the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam. The distinctive iconography is closely associated with the Dominican devotion to the Rosary. Surrounding the central Crucifixion are smaller narrative scenes illustrating key moments from the Passion of Christ: • Christ in the Garden of Olives: Following the Last Supper, Christ withdraws to the Garden of Gethsemane on the Mount of Olives. In deep anguish, he prays to be spared his suffering, while ultimately submitting to God’s will. • The Circumcision: According to the Gospel of Luke, this event occurred eight days after Christ’s birth, during the Brit Milah ceremony at which he received his name. • The Flagellation: This scene depicts the scourging ordered by Pontius Pilate, the customary prelude to crucifixion under Roman law. • Christ on the Cold Stone: The pensive Christ sits, crowned with thorns and bearing the marks of his scourging, his head resting in contemplation. This image reflects the influence of the Devotio Moderna, a movement that emphasized Christ’s human suffering as a model for personal devotion.

oskar bergman
Oskar Bergman (Stockholm 1879-1963 Saltsjöbaden) The Lagan from Laholm, 1925 Watercolour and gouache on paper 19 x 30.5 cm Signed and dated lower right: Oskar Bergman, Lagan Fran Lahollni, April 1925 Provenance: private collection There are artists who throw themselves wholeheartedly into the various currents during the course of their lives, following the frenetic rhythm of fashions, becoming the icons of an historical moment or a particular group. Others, conversely, take a vow of fidelity to their nature, far removed from the ephemeral unfolding of art, working and meditating as if in a kind of reclusion on a subject to which they devote their entire work. Oskar Bergman belongs to the latter category. His long and prolific career was nothing more than a variation on the theme of landscape, interpreted in a highly personal style that is instantly recognisable, the result of his self-taught training and few outside influences.

tokuda yasokichi iii
Tokuda Yasokichi III alias Kutani Masahiko (Japan, 1933-2009) Porcelain vase Japan, late 20th century H 29.5 cm Signed ‘Kutani Masahiko’ on the base Literature: Yosai - Tokuda Yasokichi Sakuhinshu (The works of Tokuda Yasokichi), Kodansha 1995, Japan This elegant Kutani porcelain vase by Tokuda Yasokichi III - designated a Living National Treasure in 1997 - exemplifies his groundbreaking approach to traditional ceramic art. The slender, tapering body is enveloped in a rich aubergine glaze, punctuated by a single iridescent blue stripe flowing vertically from the mouth to the base. This striking effect was created using Yasokichi’s innovative saiyū (polychrome overglaze) technique, which brought new luminosity and abstraction to Kutani ware. Born Masahiko, Yasokichi III redefined the possibilities of Kutani ceramics, elevating them into a modern art form. Today, his works are held in leading international museum collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the British Museum.
