Gustave Serrurier-Bovy (Liège 1858-1910 Antwerp) Pair of armchairs ('ouvrier' series), circa 1904 Oak, black-painted iron and woven straw H 93 x W 50 x D 50 cm Produced by 'Serrurier et Cie' Literature: F. Bigot du Mesnil du Buisson & E. du mesnil du buisson, Serrurier-Bovy 'un créateur précurseur' 1858-1910, Paris, Faton, 2008 p. 150; Jacques-Grégoire Watelet, Serrurier-Bovy, Ateliers Vokaer, Bruxelles, 1986, pp. 88-89 A true manifesto of Gustave Serrurier-Bovy’s principles, this pair of armchairs, illustrated in Art Décoratif in 1904, embodies the foundations of the artist’s thinking. Functionality, clarity, simplicity of materials and lines - the use of oak and a backrest secured with simple iron screws, initially functional and subsequently decorative, together with a rush seat - are all characteristic of his approach. His commitment to serial production, allowing his work to reach a wider audience, further demonstrates his progressive vision. Together, these elements place Gustave Serrurier-Bovy at the forefront of modernity.

Heutink Ikonen
‘Weep not for Me, Mother’ Russia, middle of the 17th century Egg tempera on gesso on linen-covered wood 31 x 26 cm Provenance: private collection, Belgium; Morsink Ikonen, Amsterdam Among the most moving images of Orthodox art is the icon known as ‘Weep Not for Me, Mother’. Its title is drawn from the liturgy of Holy Saturday, where Christ addresses his grieving mother from the tomb: 'Weep not for Me, O Mother... for I shall arise and be glorified…' The icon depicts a moment between the crucifixion and the Resurrection: the profound silence of Holy Saturday. Christ stands or rises from the tomb, whilst the Mother of God tenderly embraces him and mourns for him. The intensity of their encounter lends the image an extraordinary emotional power. Although the scene may remind Western viewers of the Pietà, its spiritual focus is different. Whilst the Pietà centres on the grief of the Blessed Virgin, ‘Weep Not for Me, Mother’ looks forward to Easter and the promise that death does not have the final say.
