About the Item

This atmospheric watercolour by Albert Saverys depicts what appears to be a Mediterranean hillside town, rendered in a harmonious palette of blues, greens and warm yellow tones. The loose yet confident brushwork and soft transitions of colour create an inviting, sunlit scene that immediately evokes the feeling of standing along a southern coastline. The work is framed behind glass in its original period gold-coloured wooden frame with canvas mount. Albert Saverys (1886–1964) is a highly regarded Belgian painter, celebrated on the European art market for his lyrical landscapes and masterful command of colour. He is especially known for his expressive river scenes of the Leie region, as well as his ability to capture atmosphere through fluid, impressionistic handling. Although most famous for his Flemish landscapes, Saverys also travelled and produced a number of southern, Mediterranean-inspired works—recognisable by their luminous, warm palette and relaxed, sun-drenched mood, as seen in this piece.

Oil Painting from 1937 Harbor View by Carles Bisschops, Oil on Panel
Located in Casteren, Noord-Brabant
Beautiful and vivid painting, oil paint on panel. The painting shows a picturesque harbor on the French Mediterranean. This work is by the Flemish painter Charles-Louis Bisschops (Liège, April 25, 1894 - Rossignol, 1975). The painting has a somewhat impressionistic touch and a beautiful use of color. The blue color of the water contrasts nicely with the shady buildings. The painting is framed in a classic wooden gilded frame. On the back of the painting is an old label stating that the painting was painted in the French port of Ferrier (near Marseille on the Mediterranean). The painting is clearly signed and dated 1937. Charles Bisschops has his own Wikipedia page, information about this: Charles Bisschops was a Belgian painter, graphic artist and draftsman. He was a student at the Academy of Brussels from 1912 to 1919. The main professors were Jean Delville and Constant Montald.
