Gabrielle Montald (born Canivet) (Brussels, 1867-1942) Decorative bird, 1929 Gouache and ink over gold ground on paper 61.5 x 46 cm (sheet) 64 x 48 cm (framed) Signed and dated lower right ‘G. Montald 29’ Provenance: private collection, Belgium Related works: Among Gabrielle Montald’s most significant autonomous bodies of work, the so-called 'Oiseau décoratif series' occupies a central position. Although the motif appears as early as 1914, the majority of these works were produced between 1925 and the early 1930s. Following her international recognition at the 1925 'Exposition des Arts Décoratifs in Paris', where her imaginative bird drawings were prominently exhibited, the series expanded in both scope and refinement. In 1927, three of the works shown in Paris were acquired by the Belgian government, marking the beginning of an institutional recognition that endures to this day. Rarely appearing on the market, a large part of Gabrielle Montald’s known oeuvre, including her textiles and bookbindings, is now preserved in Belgian museum collections.

Maarten Rijckaert (Antwerp, 1587-1611) Forest landscape with hunters, 17th century Oil on panel 32.4 x 49.5 cm This beautiful painting is a typical example of Maarten Ryckaert’s talent for creating atmospheric woodland scenes. The painting presents a dense forest filled with tall trees,a river, rough terrain and rocks. Soft light filters through the branches, creating contrasts between illuminated clearings and darker shadowed areas. In the foreground, a group of hunters on the left- and rightside accompanied by dogs: their small scale compared to the towering trees highlights the dominance of nature over human activity. The hunters add a sense of narrative and movement to the otherwise peaceful setting. Ryckaert uses earthy tones such as deep greens, browns, and golden highlights to create a rich and natural atmosphere. Fine details in the foliage, rocks, and tree trunks demonstrate his close observation of nature and his skill as a landscape painter. The scene evokes both tranquility and mystery, inviting the viewer to imagine the sounds and silence of the forest. The painting reflects the Baroque interest in dramatic natural scenery while also expressing a calm, contemplative mood. Through the balance of light, composition, and detail, Ryckaert transforms an ordinary hunting scene into a poetic vision of the natural world. Maarten Ryckaert was born in Antwerp and became especially known for his imaginative woodland scenes, rocky landscapes, and peaceful rural settings filled with travelers, hunters, and small groups of figures. Ryckaert studied painting in Antwerp and was strongly influenced by earlier Flemish landscape artists such as Joos de Momper and Jan Brueghel the Elder. Unlike many painters of his time who focused on religious or historical themes, Ryckaert specialized in landscapes, giving nature the leading role in his compositions. His works often combine realism with fantasy, creating dramatic forests, winding paths, and mysterious mountainous scenery.

Dries Criel
EOS Ring Sandblasted 18kt yellow gold and natural white diamonds Inspired by Eos, the Greek goddess of the dawn. She who brings the first light of day, casting a golden glow across the horizon before the world awakens. A symbol of renewal, radiance, and quiet transformation. Crafted in sandblasted 18kt yellow gold, the ring carries a serene warmth. Its matte surface evokes the first rays of morning light diffused through the atmosphere - gentle, luminous, and timeless. Rather than reflecting light sharply, the gold seems to hold it within, creating a subtle glow that feels both ancient and contemporary. At its centre rests an elongated, natural, step-cut diamond. Surrounding white diamonds accentuate the composition, enhancing the contrast between the softness of the gold and the crystalline purity of the central stone.

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.

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.
