Greta Van Puyenbroeck was born in Antwerp in 1943. Her parents, Paula Verberckmoes and Vital Van Puyenbroeck, both artists, laid the foundation for her love of art through their example. From 1960 to 1962, she took painting and sculpture classes at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. At first, it was mainly her children and her pets who inspired her, then it was almost exclusively animals. She was well known at Antwerp Zoo and Planckendael, as she always modeled there. Most of the animals are portraits and the connection between her and the animal is usually tangible. Since 1976, she has exhibited several times, by invitation or with her mother. From Europe, New York, California, Canada. His works are found in many private collections.

- Certified Edgard Degas Bronze of a horse : (Horse walking at a high pace)By Edgar DegasLocated in Gent, VOVCheval marchant au pas relevé is one of the artist’s most elegant and exacting models of a horse. It underscores Degas’s deep understanding of equine anatomy and his ability to render it with lightness and charm. Known for his focus on contemporary subjects, Degas first began depicting horses in the 1860s. As a member of the prestigious Jockey Club in Paris, Degas was a habitué of the racecourses at Deauville and Longchamps, where he could study the beauty of thoroughbred horses at close quarters. Although the artist was not an active participant himself, equestrian sports fascinated Degas throughout his life, as it allowed him to capture the full range of the horse’s movement in a wealth of poses. Bronze with dark brown patina bearing the stamp of the signature "Degas", numbered IV/IX and dated 1998. Posthumous lost wax casting as of 1998. Stamp of Valsuani. The work is a sought-after rarity in terms of Degas’ sculptures. This bronze is distinguished by the fact that it is a Valsuani bronze, meaning it faithfully records Degas’ wax version’s as it appeared at the time of its creation. Most Degas' bronzes that are found on the market were cast by Hébrard – these serialized bronzes are surmoulages, or “aftercasts,” that were cast from the modèle bronzes currently in the Norton Simon Museum (Pasadena). Because these bronzes are second generation, they are smaller and far less detailed than the current bronze. This example, however, was cast by Valsuani from a plaster that was taken directly from Degas’ waxes, according to scholarship by the art historian Dr. Gregory Hedberg. These plasters were created by Degas’ sculptor friend Albert Bartholomé shortly after Degas completed his wax figurines. Thus, they record the earliest versions of Degas’ wax sculptures, before they were damaged by time or handling, and before Degas himself altered the works. The Hébrard bronzes...Category
