Painted in Veere in 1906 by Théo Van Rysselberghe, this fine painting is unsurprisingly missing from the Feltkamp catalogue raisonné, but will be accompanied by a certificate from Olivier Bertrand, the artist’s expert who is preparing a scientific catalogue raisonné based on unpublished archives.
The painting was exhibited in 1908 in Paris, Dresden and Vienna and has been kept by the same family for several generations.
It is an oil on board, signed with the monogram and measuring 40 x 52.5 cm. Estimated at 30/50,000 Swiss francs. Plus 27.02% buyer’s premium. The sale will take place at Schüler in Zürich on 18 June.
