An early to mid-19th-century portrait of a young man holding a book by Belgian artist

A beautiful landscape painting with country track and pine trees gently lit by the last of the evening’s sun

We particularly love the way the artist has skilfully captured the light as it reflects off the fruit

Early 20th Century Dutch School, Peeling Vegetables At The Table Flowers Fedor van Kregten (1871-1937)An early 20th century Dutch school oil on canvas depicting a young lady peeling vegetables at a table. Shes dressed in traditional Dutch clothing including a pair of yellow clogs. This quiet interior scene evokes the stillness and intrigue of a work by Johannes Vermeer (1632 1675). It captures the beauty within an everyday domestic moment one that would otherwise pass us by. We love the colours in her dress and the way she rests her feet on the table.
