The Works on Paper auction on Thursday, 8 October, brought strong results across a wide range of artists and works. Niki de Saint Phalle achieved the highest price of the sale at €50,000. Around 30 works on paper by Panamarenko and Pierre Alechinsky sparked lively bidding, with hammer prices ranging from €1,300 to €8,500.
The 1652 sea atlas by Janssonius found a new collector for €22,000, while Roy Lichtenstein’s Water lily sold for €15,000. Other notable results included Jan Fabre at €13,000, Bernar Venet at €6,000 and Roger Raveel at €3,500. Thank you to everyone who took part in our October auctions.

There was strong interest in twentieth century art at Bernaerts’ October auction, with several works achieving notable results. Sculptures by Pugliese sold for between €6,000 and €18,000, while works by Atchugarry reached €18,000 and €6,500. Bram Bogart’s works sold for €13,000 and €18,000, and Marthe Donas’ work changed hands for €6,000. Anton Prinner’s rare sculpture Double personnage from 1955 achieved €15,000. Works from the interwar period also attracted keen interest. Gustave De Smet’s Bos bij avond sold for €14,000, as did Felix Timmermans’ Zaaier. A painted artist’s palette by James Ensor from 1939 doubled its estimate, reaching €40,000. A pair of armchairs by Joseph Hoffmann achieved €15,000. In the Classical section, the singing boxes sold for prices ranging from €1,100 to €3,200.

🌞 The two day auction at Bernaerts, featuring more than 800 lots, achieved better results than expected, although some of the star lots remained unsold.
The highlight of the VRT collection, Jan Cox’s monumental canvas, failed to find a buyer during the evening session on Tuesday, 6 October. Several other works, however, attracted strong bidding. Jan Cox’s 'Vormen van de aarde' sold for €9,000, while Paul Van Gyseghem’s 'Homo Sapiens' achieved €8,500. Jan Burssens’ 'Het Beloofde Land' from 1962 sold for €6,500, a Pierre Cox work reached €5,400, and an Atomium panel went for €5,500. The four canvases mounted on panels by Georges Collignon also remained unsold, perhaps due to their sheer scale.

Among the highlights of our 8 October ‘Works on Paper’ auction are two volumes of the 1652 Janssonius atlas, both bound in their original parchment. The ‘Maritime Atlas’ is particularly noteworthy and is sure to attract considerable attention. With its detailed maps and charts, it offers a fascinating glimpse into how the world’s seas and coastlines were represented in the 17th century.
