Tom Wesselmann (Cincinnati 1931-2004 New York) Long Beach Seascape, 1991/95 Alkyd oil on cut-out aluminum 99.1 x 190.5 cm Signed and dated on the back Provenance: the estate of the artist Tom Wesselmann’s creative approach was in constant evolution throughout his long and productive career. Never one to follow artistic convention, he continually sought new materials and formats. His fascination with innovative surfaces and technologically advanced techniques drove him to push aesthetic and formal frontiers, as seen in 'Long Beach Seascape'. In the 1980s, Wesselmann developed a laser cutting technique that opened up a new world of creative possibilities. Using this novel method, the artist delighted in transposing his bold visual vocabulary into works that challenged the boundaries between painting, drawing, and sculpture. Speaking to the New York Times in 1985, Wesselmann couldn’t contain his enthusiasm for the new medium: 'I've just had the best year of my life [...] I always work in a kind of near ecstasy, anyway, but there's really been something about the new work that grabbed me.'' Centering dynamic line and vibrant colour, 'Long Beach Seascape' demonstrates the artist’s endless pursuit of radical forms of creative expression.

Gerard Ter Borch (Zwolle 1617-1681 Deventer) Portrait of a man with a black hat, circa 1650 Oil on oval panel 19.9 x 16.5 cm Gerard ter Borch (1617-1681) was one of the most refined painters of the Dutch seventeenth century. Born in Zwolle, he received his first training from his father, Gerard ter Borch I, within a household where drawing and copying formed an essential part of daily artistic practice. Several of his siblings also became artists, contributing to a rich familial archive that documents the development of the Ter Borch workshop. After extensive travels through Amsterdam, Haarlem, London, Madrid and Münster, Ter Borch settled in Deventer, where he became a respected member of the city’s elite. Ter Borch is celebrated for his intimate genre scenes and portraits, distinguished by a subtle palette, delicate handling of light, and a keen sensitivity to gesture and expression. His paintings are marked by elegance, psychological depth, and exceptional technical skill, particularly in the rendering of skin and textiles. This portrait of a man wearing a black hat, painted on an oval panel, exemplifies these qualities. The sitter faces the viewer directly and meets our gaze with quiet self‑confidence, creating a sense of immediacy and silent dialogue. His restrained pose and understated attire suggest dignity without ostentation. The refined and harmonious colour scheme, composed of carefully balanced tones, is characteristic of Ter Borch’s portrait practice. The subtle fall of light gently models the face, giving the features clarity and depth without strong contrasts. The smooth surface of the panel enhances the precision of Ter Borch’s brushwork and contributes to the intimate character of the work. Rather than a display of status, the portrait becomes a concentrated study of presence and inner life. The gallery is grateful to Marjorie Wieseman, who endorsed the attribution on the basis of a photograph, and to Guido Jansen, who confirmed the attribution after examining the painting in person.
