Jan Zrzavy (1890-1977)

A recurring theme with late 16th-century Northern European artists, here the ruin of Sodom and Gomorrah is brilliantly depicted in a style typical of the great Jan Bruegel.

This Dutch artist, whose life is somewhat of a mystery, produced meticulously painted still lifes, including some outstanding vanitases. A fine example of this small corpus will soon be demonstrating his virtuosity.

This nightmarish vision of a blazing Troy borders on the sublime. The subject, highly popular with Flemish collectors in the 17th century and treated here with disturbing eeriness by the artist, echoes very real ancestral fears.

The 17th-century was a prosperous time for the Low Countries, when Bruegel depicted bustling trade on its roads.

This rare series of four paintings on copper by Bruegel the Younger evokes the family tradition in a real demonstration of virtuosity.

The Belgian visual artist and choreographer is targeted by accusations in an open letter published in 2018 by his former employees. It was in the wake of MeToo that an investigation launched by the Flemish authorities had targeted Fabre. His trial began on March 25. The prosecution is seeking 3 years in prison.

A drawing estimated at $200-300 by Marion Antique Auctions turned out to be Jan Lievens’ original drawing of Dutch naval commander Maerten Tromp. Lievens’ images of Tromp were very popular but the original was missing. Christopher Bishop, who bought the work, is now offering it for €1.35M at TEFAF Maastricht. (Artnet)

This sculpture, with its rich symbolism and delicate beauty, is closely related to the works of Jan Borman I.

Imitating his famous father, Jan "Velvet" Bruegel, Jan II Bruegel, known as the Younger, reinterprets the allegorical theme of the four elements in this work giving full rein to nature.

The new executive team of the Biennale Paris, headed by Mathias Ary Jan, is boldly striking out, aware of the issues and expectations at stake.
