Oil on canvas Signed lower right: “Gustave De Smet” “Geese going into the Leie,” by Gustave De Smet captures a serene moment in the Belgian countryside. The painting invites viewers to witness a simple yet captivating scene: three geese making their way towards the Leie River. De Smet’s Impressionist style is characterized by his ability to capture the essence of the moment, emphasizing the interplay of light and color to create a calm atmosphere.

Animated landscape with a river Oil on panel Signature central below Dimensions: 37 x 66 cm, 55 x 77 cm (framed) THE ARTWORK This painting by Kerstiaen de Keuninck presents an expansive imaginary landscape, filled with lush trees, rolling hills, and distant vistas bathed in a theatrical play of light. Dominated by a large central tree, the composition draws the viewer’s eye toward the glowing horizon, which adds depth and a sense of mystery to the scene. The landscape is populated with small figures and buildings, providing scale and inviting the viewer into the serene yet intricate world De Keuninck has created. De Keuninck’s landscapes are characterized by a dramatic use of light and shadow, lending a sense of atmosphere and grandeur to otherwise pastoral settings. His imaginary landscapes often embody a sense of fantasy and timelessness, and here, the softly illuminated foliage and shadowy recesses create a harmonious interplay of light, capturing the viewer's attention and enhancing the painting’s depth. THE ARTIST Kerstiaen de Keuninck was a Flemish Mannerist painter born around 1560 in Kortrijk and later active in Antwerp.

He drew significant inspiration from Roelant Savery, Joos de Momper...
