Jacob Gielens's contemporaries

The image depicts a young person standing upright with distinct facial features including rounded cheeks, a small mouth, and large eyes. They are wearing a brown dress with a cream-colored shawl, a bonnet with dark trim, and a pouch hanging from their left side. The background is plain and cream-colored.
"King Lear," Act I, Scene I, by Edwin Austin Abbey, 1898
This is a painting showing two people in nature. The person on the left appears to be running towards the right, with one leg in the air and their arms outstretched. They have tan, golden-toned skin, blond hair, and golden fabric draped loosely around them, billowing backward as they run. On the right is a pale person standing upright in a tree, their arms outstretched. They appear intertwined with the tree, with their feet nestled in the light brown trunk and their head and hands covered in olive-green leaves. The background features indistinct brown shapes against a clear blue sky.
The image depicts a detailed drawing of a wall-mounted vessel. It consists of a large, spherical body attached to a flat disc, with two smaller protrusions resembling handles or clips. The color palette is monochromatic with shades of gray, giving it a metallic or ceramic appearance. The objects are centrally positioned, with a small inset illustration in the bottom left corner showing annotations. The artist's signature, "A. Marshall," is located near the lower right corner of the image.
OTTER CLIFFS
Shown from the knees up, a woman sits partially covered by a black cloth as she holds one forearm across her bare breasts in this vertical painting. The woman has pale, yellow-tinged skin and long, copper-red hair and bangs. Her body faces us, but she turns her head to look off to our right with large blue, wide-set eyes. Her cheeks are flushed, and her full, dark pink lips are closed. A strand of gradually larger amber-yellow beads hangs around her neck, and she wears a gold-colored bracelet on the arm braced across her chest, her left arm, to our right. Glimpses of pale pink nipples are visible. The voluminous black cloth drapes down over one shoulder and across her hips. She wears a ring on the other hand, which emerges from the cloth to rest on that knee. Piles of garnet red, peridot green, and forest green are piled up to chest height behind her, and the background is nickel gray around her body and darkens to black around the top and side edges. The scene is loosely painted, especially in the fabric and background. The artist signed the canvas in the lower left corner, “Geo. Bellows E.S.B.”

The works in this room are listed below.

Their contemporaries, second

  1. The image shows a green glass goblet with a textured, bubble-like pattern on the cup and a smooth stem. The color palette consists of shades of green with varying tones, depending on the glass's thickness and pattern. The goblet is positioned centrally, seen straight-on with the cup's pattern visible across its surface. It rests on a flat surface, slightly above the center of the image.
