 | | I first studied art history at the University of Louvain (1982-1987), then continued to train at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna (1987-1988), and the Rubens House in Antwerp (1990). After 10 years in the art trade I set up my own art gallery: Bernard Descheemaeker - Works of Art. The gallery is situated at the Helenalei 7, 2018 Antwerp, Belgium (location and road description). My collection comprises: - 12th & 13th-century champlevé enamels
- 15th, 16th and 17th-century painted enamels (émail peint) from Limoges
- romanesque and gothic ivories
- decorative bronze objects
- 16th and early 17th-century ceramics from Antwerp and France (M. Abaquesne, suite de Palissy, ...)
- sculpture and reliefs from the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance
- illuminated manuscripts and medieval miniatures
- 15th, 16th and 17th-century paintings, oil sketches and drawings
- miscellanea - works of art in copper, brass, bronze, ivory, mother-of-pearl, silver gilt and textiles
