Rafael Correa (1872 - 1959)

This work is from the Chili based painter Rafael Correa who

offers us a market scene here. The colors are so strong and joyful

even after nearly sixty years. After cleaning it was clear that

this painting still is fresh to these days. Dated 1956.

Rafael Correa lived from 1872 untill 1959 and one

of his bigger works "La Trilla" sold for nearly 5000 Euro's.

 

What is immediately striking is the strange prefix M at the

end of this signature which allmost looks like three sevens.

He dated this work and made it on a typical piece of thick

cardboard. The back bears a stamp by the Bibliotheca

et Musea de Santiago Chili which claims a legally

export of this piece of art out of Chili.

Dimensions: 27 / 35 cm. Good condition.

The painting presented here we found on an internet site and

is more similar to the first one: more impressionistic and

with more tensity in it compared to his earlier works.

We still have to investigate provenance and value.

To my believe one of his stronger works!

Bovée / Allard / Ardennen / Artigas / Augustina

Jules Bovée

Jules Bovée (1915) is een bel;gisch kunstenaar die aanvankelijk

in sombere tinten werkte. Zijn studiereizen deden zijn palet een

omslag maken naar vrolijker em lichtere kleuren, getuige dit werk.

Olie op paneel. Afmetingen 50 / 60 cm.

Charles Allard

A very well done watercolour by this belgium artist that

lived around 1900. A beautiful oriental watercolour of his hand

can be found on the internet. Work on paper.

Dimensions: 25 / 35 cm.

Ardennen

One way or another this signature seems to have been removed

or otherwise fainted over time. We liked the subtle colour nuances

in this painting and the craftsmanship in general.

Painted on a walnut wooden panel. Dimensions

30 / 40 cm. Oil painting on wood.

Joan Ga(i)rdy Artigas

Litho: afmetingen 80 / 110 cm

Baeyens Martin R

Graphic work of the belgium artist Martin R Baeyens.

This particular work is called: "Ode to Vincent van Gogh"

More of his work can easily be found on the internet.

He was awarded with several prices all over the world.

This label states he made this litho exclusively for

Riem and Honig paper.Work on paper.

Dimensions: 70 / 90 cm.

John Bevort

John Bevort made a lot of mediterenian oriented works

he finally signed with "Camprio". Several works with

this signature can be found in the USA. the strange

thging about this work that it carries in fact two signatures:

Camprio and Bevort which is quite rare.

Work on canvas. Dimensions: 40 / 50 cm

Brouwer Peter

This painting has been signed: Marrot. However a

part of this painting has been cut off in order

to let the original signature disappear. The second

painting shows us an original still life from the dutch

painter Peter Brouwer and the similarities are striking.

Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 60 / 80 cm

The original Peter Brouwer that came to me by a collector

of dutch art from Gdansk! Apart from the way the paint

has been applied, this canvas measures 60 / 90 cm (!)
It is obvious that someone removed the signature by
cutting off 10 cm from one side in order to put up a fake
signature on this work! This happens quite often.

Buikema Albert

This work is called "Stormy Ocean" Oil on canvas.

Dimensions 60 / 90 cm.

We recently bought this work because

similarities with the work above are striking.

Strang thing is that this work hasn't  been signed.
Thus proved blacklight even after removing the
false signature. However the subject, elements,
way of painting and even the same placing of
some details in this painting makes it another Buikema.

Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 50 / 60 cm.

"Immortality of Garrick"

CASSIN (?)

Dimensions 30 / 40 cm.

CHIARA CASTELLI

This work came to us being an anonymous work.

However as with most crayons the glass was very dirty

so after removing this work out of it's frame

the signature appears to be put on the back.

G. Cox Jr.

A lot of these crayons keeps popping up at antique markets

and household auctions as there was a whole family named

Cox that produced crayons in this style. It is a bit

disturbing however that there is an Englishman Garstin

Cox that later worked in Belgium and was producing

in about the same style as the dutch based Cox family.

The reed grooves are done in a meticulous way.
Additional information can be found on the following site: http://stichtingvanmourik.nl/lex/Pages/artists/CoxG/coxg.htm
Inside information is that G. Cox Jr. made a lot of crayons for
an antique dealer in Antwerp so it is explainable that these
crayons can be found in Belgium as well.

Work on paper. Dimensions: 47 / 88 cm.

Probably a later addition. This artist cannot be traced.

The frame has been renewed.
