Guardian of the Inner Realm – Unknown Artist, Belgian School, 1960s–1970s. Mixed Media on Canvas. This monumental abstract-figurative composition depicts an elongated, frontal human figure constructed through powerful black linear structures and fragmented geometric planes. The face emerges from a dense network of angular lines and layered textures, combining cubist fragmentation with expressive symbolism.

Metallic gold and silver tones introduce a luminous, icon-like presence, evoking sacral and Byzantine visual traditions, while the dominant black contours impose a strong graphic authority over the composition. The symmetrical vertical structure, piercing eyes, and elongated proportions create an archetypal figure that transcends individual identity, functioning instead as a symbolic presence.

Positioned between abstraction and figuration, the work reflects the influence of post-war European expressionism and post-Cobra visual language, merging modernist formalism with spiritual and metaphysical themes. The surface texture and layered materiality enhance the psychological depth and symbolic intensity of the image.

This work belongs to the tradition of sacral expressionist abstraction within mid-20th-century Belgian art, where religious iconography, archetypal symbolism, and modernist abstraction converge into a powerful, timeless visual language.. Dimensions Frame: Height 111 Width 86 cm. Visual: Height 89,5 Width 64,5 cm.

This vintage ceramic wall plaquette is a distinctly Belgian decorative piece, rooted in the applied-arts tradition of the 1970s, where craft, symbolism, and architecture often intersected. The relief depicts a stylised female figure standing in the sun, her arm raised as if shielding her face or greeting the light. She is surrounded by organic, flowing forms that can be read as grain, foliage, or wind-blown vegetation, reinforcing themes of nature, fertility, and craftsmanship. The composition is calm yet expressive, with strong vertical movement and a gently sculpted surface. The colour palette is restrained and harmonious: soft yellow, muted olive green, beige, and warm earth tones, finished in a matte glaze that enhances the sculptural relief rather than reflecting light. This matte finish is typical of Belgian and Northern European decorative ceramics of the period, favouring tactility over gloss. At the lower section, a shield bearing the inscription “Kamer van Ambachten en Neringen” (Chamber of Crafts and Trades) firmly anchors the piece in a Belgian institutional or commemorative context. Such plaques were often commissioned for guild halls, public buildings, exhibitions, or as honorary or commemorative wall pieces celebrating craftsmanship and trade. A quietly powerful Belgian ceramic wall plaquette with symbolic imagery, matte glaze, and strong period character which is in an excellent condition. Best appreciated as a standalone decorative object or within a collection of European mid-century architectural ceramics. Dimensions: Height 31,5 Width 15,5 Thick 2 cm.

A refined mid-century cylindrical vase from Flora Gouda Holland, model "Madrid". The piece features a high-gloss, multitone glaze in warm, earthy golden/yellow-brown hues with subtle colour variation and a satiny sheen. The simple, architectural cylinder form is classic Gouda plateel—sculptural yet domestic—and the dense, glossy glaze highlights the hand-finished surface. This vase makes a bold, timeless accent in both vintage and contemporary interiors.

Flora (Plateelbakkerij Flora) was one of the recognized Gouda potteries producing decorative plateel and vases in the Netherlands during the mid-20th century; Flora pieces are commonly found under the marks "Flora Gouda Holland" and were produced in many decorative series, including the Madrid series. Sources and marketplace listings place Madrid pieces in the mid-century production run (variously dated in different listings between the 1950s and 1970s).
