| Description | |
| Baron Armand Van Zuylen, interior scene with a wealthy lady in a belle epoque dress. Armand van Zuylen, barely 18 years old, studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. His passion for art history and his father's legacy led him in 1867 to build his own collection around four disciplines: weapons, musical instruments, textiles and costumes, watches and clocks. Later, he also focused on painting, sculpture, medieval art, porcelain and ceramics, which allowed his collection to develop and become one of the most important in Belgium in terms of quality, number and diversity of the works collected. As a painter and collector at the same time, he devoted his life to the promotion of the arts, in particular by lending part of his collection to renowned exhibitions (for example, the National Exhibition of Belgium in 1883). Signed lower right. Oil on canvas, circa 1880. |
