专家说明


Featuring a richly-veneered coromandel surface to the case, the present cabinet, a unique work, acknowledges both Surrealism and nature though the insertion of bronze thorns to the surface, which appear as if growing from the flat plane of the structure. Supported on heavy bronze platforms, the cabinet transcends precedents, establishing it as one of the most intriguing of van der Straeten’s portfolio.

Christie's would like to thank Olivia Palazzolo from Atelier Hervé van der Straeten for her assistance with the cataloguing of this lot.
