Heutink Ikonen
The Transfiguration of Christ Russia, Kaluga region, late 18th century Egg tempera on gesso on linen-covered wood 54 x 44.5 cm This finely painted and colourful icon, with late Baroque and Rococo influences, depicts the miracle of the Transfiguration of Christ. Remarkably, not only the Transfiguration of Christ itself is depicted, but also the preceding and subsequent events, as described in the gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, are captured in one and the same composition. Christ and his three disciples are each portrayed four times, each at a different moment of the narrative, and in a different state of mind. On the left, we see Christ telling the disciples Peter, John and James to follow him up the mountain. Once on the mountain, Christ changes shape: his clothes turn white like light and his countenance becomes radiant like a sun. Next to Christ, the prophets Moses and Elijah appear, being brought to the mountain by angels. When the voice of God sounds from heaven, the disciples become fearful and fall face down to earth. Christ touches them and reassures them. Then, as they descend from the mountain, Christ urges his disciples not to tell anyone what they had seen.

René Magritte (Lessines 1898-1967 Brussels) Les Grâces naturelles, circa 1953 Red chalk on paper 47 x 36.7 cm Signed lower right Signed and titled on the reverse lower right Certificate of authenticity by Comité Magritte Provenance: La Sirène gallery, Brussels; private collection; sale Sotheby's, Paris; private collection, Paris 'If we imagine young girls blossoming, we can also acknowledge a bird in bloom. The emergence of this bird is as delightful as the sunrise'. René Magritte The bird-plant in this beautiful chalk drawing, Les Grâces naturelles, is an emblematic and recurring theme of Magritte's art. This particularly graceful model of metamorphosis was cquired from the Belgian artist in 1953 by Raymond Becquevort, founder of the La Sirène gallery in Brussels. Frequented by Ponge, Artaud and Michaud, it was a major hub for the surrealist intelligentsia; a place where words discovered images. Magritte began developing the theme of the bird-plant in 1942, when Belgium was under Nazi occupation. He adapted this theme into infinite variations moving from chalk to gouache, then onto canvas. So often symbols of hope, here birds are poetic and neurasthenic metaphors. The assimilation of the naturally-mobile bird with the plant that is rooted deep in the earth, contributes to a troubled state of mind.

Herwig Simons Fine Arts
Manierist Mascaron Italy, mid 16th century Istrian marble H 50 x W 40 cm An expressive Mascaron in Istrian marble of a lion's head holding a ring in his mouth. Istrian marble was widely used during the Renaissance, particularly in Venetian architecture, and its soft tones beautifully complement the intricate details of the lion's face and ring. This design is symbolic: lions represented strength, protection, and authority and gave the building grandeur, serving as a sculptural accent that elevates the aesthetic quality of the entrance or facade.
