Farah Atassi (Brussels, 1981) The Shadow, 2026 Oil on canvas 195.3 x 114.3 cm Signed and dated on the back Provenance: the artist's studio Exhibitions: Farah Atassi, 'Metamorphosis', 26 June-31 July 2026, Almine Rech New York 'The Shadow' comes from a recent body of work in which Farah Atassi explored themes of metamorphosis and freedom. The central figure is a chimeric half woman-half flower that appears to flourish before our very eyes. Daphne - the nymph turned into a laurel tree to escape the god Apollo - comes to mind, a representation of transformation and transcendence. In 'The Shadow' the flower woman is organic, yet sculptural, retaining a distinct humanity that the artist has simplified, symbolised. While the composition is dreamlike and ethereal, a bold shadow brings a touch of realism, anchoring the twisting form to the pictorial plane. This work is a painting within a painting, a formal choice that allows Atassi to contrast two distinct realms while also interrogating the metamorphic potential of art. Notes of Magritte’s uncanny, atmospheric beauty emerge as the flower woman in 'The Shadow' is captured in the act of liberating herself from a canvas, striking out into the rosy dawn.

An Empire bronze carousel automaton clock French, circa 1815 Chased and fire gilded bronze H 51 x W 26 x D 17 cm This rare clock, entirely composed of chased and fire gilded bronze, takes the form of a hexagonal pedestal with chamfered corners, housing a movement with a circular white enamel dial on its front. A rich repertoire inspired by antiquity adorns this pedestal: winged griffins, musical putti, cornucopias, scrolled palmettes and rosettes, and, flanking the short sides, two horse heads, chased in the round, each supporting a 'pike' enriched at the base with a corolla of lanceolate water leaves, and punctuated by a ringed tablet for one, and a laurel wreath. An imposing carousel, structured around a richly chased central column ending in a ball, distinguishes the clock. Three putti riding swans—one winged, the second wearing Mercury's helmet, and the third dressed as a court jester—each attempt to grasp the tablet's ring with a curved object. The clock rests on a projecting hexagonal base decorated with a frieze of alternating stylized palmettes and fleurons. A spring mechanism, wound with a key accessible on the rear right-hand chamfered edge of the pedestal, sets the carousel in motion. This mechanism is activated either when the clock strikes or, at other times, by operating a small lever visible beneath the keyhole. A very similar model is held in the clock collection of the François Duesberg Museum in Mons, Belgium. It differs only in its dial and, most notably, in the inscription 'Nicolas Esterhazy, SOUVENIR D’ENFANCE' (Nicolas Esterhazy, Childhood Memory), visible on the front of the base. Also noteworthy is a clock of the same type, signed VAILLANT A PARIS, which was part of the collection of Countess Valtesse de La Bigne Ville d’Avray (1859-1910) and is now in private hands. Another similar example was presented at Drouot on September 15, 2016 (Mac-Arthur Kohn lot 83). It came from the former collection of the Marchioness of Tweeddale.

Jane Graverol (Brussels 1905-1984 Fontainebleau) Oil on canvas L’École de la liberté, 1949 60 x 73 cm Signed and dated 'Jane Graverol 1949' Provenance: collection of his friend and artist Tom Gutt Literature: Xavier Canonne, Le surréalisme en Belgique: 1924-2000, Fonds Mercator, 2006; Le surréalisme en Belgique, Bozar Books, Fonds Mercator, 2024 Exhibitions: Le surréalisme en Belgique, Musée de Mons, March-August 2007; Histoire de ne pas rire, Bozar, Brussels, February-June 2024, ill. p. 221 Created in 1949, the year Jane Graverol met René Magritte, this work is an important example of the artist’s exploration of female identity and confinement. Graverol depicts herself inside a cage. The image reflects on women’s position in the mid-20th century, when social expectations strongly limited women’s independence. Yet, the open door suggests the possibility of emancipation and a desire to break away from prescribed roles. The painting was also repeatedly selected by the press to illustrate coverage of the Bozar exhibition. This artwork embodies something larger: the tension between the restrictions of an era and a woman’s desire to claim a space of her own. Full press references available on request.

EOS Earrings Crafted in sandblasted 18kt yellow gold, the earrings radiate a soft, sunlit warmth. Their matte surface captures light with subtlety, creating a gentle and enduring glow. At the heart of each piece rests a natural, white, step-cut diamond. Framed by flowing lines and delicate pavé diamonds, its architectural brilliance recalls the moment dawn first appears on the horizon - quiet, luminous and full of promise.
