Heutink Ikonen
Two angels of the Lord Central Russia, circa 1800 Ø 44 cm Provenance: private collection, Germany This remarkable icon depicts two angels, each holding a ripidion - a ceremonial liturgical fan symbolising the constant presence of the seraphim around the altar, which is used during processions and other solemn occasions in the Eastern liturgy. Given its distinctive shape and subject, it is likely that the icon formed part of a church iconostasis, where it would probably have been positioned to the right of the royal doors, which provided access to the altar area.

'Evariste Carpentier nous oblige à quitter ce coin hivernal du Brabant, pour admirer l’estival et Paisible hameau de Logne ; ceci est une page radieuse, la meilleure qu’ait signé ce maître fécond et divers. En ce site, d’un pittoresque fermement établi, l’ombre transparente des premiers plans s’opposent à l’ardent et léger ensoleillement des fonds. L’observation interprétative est accusée par la vérité des plans, obtenus par la ligne des éléments aussi bien que par les valeurs du coloris et la distribution de la lumière, qui se répète dans l’onde vive d’un ruisseau dont deux vaches suivent le bord. Une impression heureuse se dégage de cette œuvre qu’on peut considérer comme un beau poème pastoral.'

René Lalique (Ay 1860-1945 Paris) Art Nouveau dragonfly brooch Paris, circa 1903 18 k yellow gold, 'plique-à-jour' enamel and polychrome enamel, old mine cut diamonds, citrine and pearls 11.6 x 4.4 cm Signed Lalique Accompanied by its original fitted case marked R. Lalique, 40, Cours-la-Reine, Paris, monogrammed 'E.A.' An important Art Nouveau dragonfly brooch by René Lalique, in 18-karat gold, designed as two opposing dragonflies with delicate wings of translucent plique-à-jour enamel, accented with old mine-cut diamonds. At the centre, the dragonflies clasp a cushion-shaped orange citrine, their bodies and legs enhanced with polychrome enamel. Graduated pearls trace the extremities of the wings, lending the composition a graceful sense of movement and lightness, characteristic of Lalique’s jewellery at the height of the Art Nouveau period.
