\nA selection of the highlights below.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]We start with an extensive range of archaeological finds, from Egypt, Etruria and China, among others. Following that, we offer 15th- and 16th-century wooden statues of saints, alongside classical silverware.

The 20th century, in turn, is represented by Hippolyte Daeye, Henri Victor Wolvens, Karel Appel (with a \u2018pastuous\u2019 oil on panel), Klaas Gubbels, Floris Jespers (including two back-glass paintings of his recognisable clowns), Philippe Vandenberg, Jan Vercruysse, Kees Van Bohemen and consorts.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”27090″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”27084″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=”top” css=”.vc_custom_1741683845195{margin-top: 2% !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/6″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]At the Werk op Papier sessions, we mention above all the original works by Eugeen Van Mieghem, Jules De Bruycker, Paul Joostens, Paul Klee and four ink drawings by Rik Wouters.
