LANDSCAPE WITH HAYCOCKS AT SUNSET. J. KLEVER. RUSSIA, LATE 19TH
sia antion, riga, latvia
An atmospheric painted scene of a rural landscape, presumably executed in the 1880s–1890s by the distinguished Russian artist Julius von Klever. The composition is built on the contrast between the warm evening light and the dense mass of haycocks scattered across the field. A flock of birds rises above the horizon, adding gentle movement and symbolic depth to the scene.The subtle use of color, sensitivity to atmospheric light, and generalized plasticity of form place the work within the circle of Klevers oeuvre and suggest a likely attribution to the early period of his artistic career. The painting is set in its original late 19th-century gilt frame with ornamental carving.Artist’s signature: J. ???????, lower right.Dimensions: Canvas without frame: 40 × 30 cm. With frame: 50 × 42 × 7 cm.Condition: Excellent. The canvas surface is stable, varnish with even patina. Original frame with minor signs of age.Provenance: Private collection, Western Europe.

Painting Nude girl, K.Somov, 1897

Painting Naked girl Signed K.Somov 1897. In a horizontal tondo, slightly diagonally, lies a naked girl.

The artist hesitates to pause, the direction of the veiled gaze, the covers of the sheets - the intrigue and charm of the work. A mirror and a chocolate set complete the portrait of the young beauty.

sia antion, riga, latvia
This artwork is a portrait of General Goethals, who served as the commanding officer of the Province of Antwerp during the Bourbon Restoration era.

The portrait is beautifully presented within an opulent wooden frame, gilded with authentic gold leaf in the Empire style typical of the Bourbon Restoration period. The painting has undergone careful cleaning and restoration to preserve its exquisite details and historical significance.Gustaaf Wappers (1803-1874) studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and in Paris during the time when the Romantic movement with its new ideas about art and politics was astir in France. Wappers was the first Belgian artist to take advantage of this state of affairs, and his first exhibited painting, The Devotion of the Burgomaster of Leiden, appeared at the appropriate moment and had great success in the Brussels Salon in 1830, the year of the Belgian Revolution. While political, this remarkable work revolutionised the direction of Flemish painters. Width: 50cm, Height: 63cm, Depth: 5cm, Weight: 1kg, Condition: Condition of use, Material: Oil, ID: 12514

Early 18th Century Dutch Landscape Painting Attributed to Théobald Michau
sia antion, riga, latvia
This wonderful oil painting on canvas portrays a vibrant Dutch landscape and is attributed to Théobald Michau (1676-1765). It is characterised by a realistic depiction of everyday rural life in a flat Dutch landscape, emphasising intricate details of the scenery and luminism in the portrayal of light effects. The atmospheric perspective creates depth and portrays the dynamic influence of changing weather conditions in the painting, due to its use of soft colours in the background, giving the illusion of depth and distance. It is presented within a modern wooden frame and dates back to the 18th century, maintaining an impeccable condition.Théobald Michau was a Flemish painter known for his landscapes and genre paintings more famous in his own time than he is today. He began his training at the age of ten in Brussels under Lucas Achtschellinck, also a landscape painter. In 1698, he became a master in the Guild of Brussels, and in 1710, he was elected as a member of the Guild of Antwerp. He is considered a follower of Flemish landscape masters of the 17th century, such as Jan Brueghel the Elder or David Teniers the Younger.

Aboriginal Painting by Tjunkiya Napaltjarri (1927-2009)
sia antion, riga, latvia
We offer an exquisite Aboriginal artwork created by Tjunkiya Napaltjarri (1927-2009) in 2002, sourced from the Papunya Tula Art Center. Her work can be found in the collections of the Musée du Quai Branly. This painting comes with a certificate of authenticity and a gallery invoice.ABOUT THE ARTIST: Tjunkiya Napaltjarri is one of the oldest in the Western Desert. She was born around 1927 in the area northwest of Walungurru (known as Kintore, Northern Territory) and died in 2009. She therefore lived a good part of her life in a very traditional way (without contact with the white man). It was her mother (a woman born in Umari, a sacred site which is the main theme of Tjunkiyas paintings) who first took her to Haasts Bluff. From that point on, she joined Papunya and then regained her ancestral lands after the return of the lands to the Aborigines. Tjunkiya started painting in 1995 and has since participated in numerous exhibitions. She became the second wife of Toba Tjakamarra, who, like her own Shorty Lungkata Tjungurrayi, was a prominent founding father of the Papunya Tula art movement, Turkey Tolson Tjupurrula. Similarily to a number of other women in the central and western desert of the region, Tjunkiya was introduced to painting through the Minyma Tjukurrpa (Womens Dream) painting project in the mid-1990s. In 1996 Tjunkiya was featured in the group exhibition Papunya Women at the Utopia Art Gallery in Sydney, while in 2000 she had an exhibition at the William Mora Galleries in Melbourne and was included in the major exhibition of the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Papunya Tula: Genesis and Genius. Tjunkiya Napaltjarris remarkable artworks unveil forms through the technique of scraping colors across the surface, a distinctive method uncommon among Papunya Tula Artists. Tjunkiyas works are held in major private collections, such as Nangara (also known as the Ebes Collection). Her works have also been acquired by the Art Gallery of New South Wales, the National Gallery of Australia, the National Gallery of Victoria, the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory and the Supreme Court of the Northern Territory. In France, her works can be admired in the collections of the Musées du Quai Branly – Jacques Chirac in Paris. Her pieces are featured in esteemed collections such as in Australia: National Gallery of Australia Araluen Collection (Alice Springs) Art Gallery of New South Wales Campbelltown City Art Gallery Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory National Gallery of Victoria Supreme Court of the Northern Territory Artbank International: Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Col lection of the University of Virginia, USA Musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac, Paris, France .
