Sudpsuez Framed Academic Drawing
This Late 18th/Early 19th-Century Academic Drawing exemplifies the refined skill and classical training characteristic of its era, with origins likely rooted in French or Belgian artistic traditions. Executed on blue-gray paper, the study depicts a series of anatomical sketches, focusing on torsos, arms, and legs. The artist’s use of delicate linework and nuanced shading captures the subtleties of human musculature and movement, reflecting a deep understanding of proportion and form. The composition conveys a quiet yet purposeful exploration of the human figure, indicative of academic practices at the time.
Presented in a beautifully crafted faux tortoiseshell ebonized frame, the piece gains an additional layer of sophistication. The frame’s warm tones contrast harmoniously with the cool surface of the drawing, enhancing its visual appeal. This work serves as both a fine example of period draftsmanship and an elegant decorative object, offering insight into the traditions of late Enlightenment and early Romantic art.

Sudpsuez Francois Halard: Art and Flowers
Words by Francois Halard
The master photographer’s compelling images of his two most intimate passions: art and flowers.
“His photography has an innate capacity to evoke emotion and tell stories that linger in the mind long after the image is seen,” writes Dries Van Noten in the foreword to this two-volume series of images.
Long revered for his personal photography of the world’s most celebrated buildings and interiors, Halard strikes a new path with two new bodies of work. Confined to his house in Arles after a shoulder injury in early 2024, Halard began photographing the objects immediately surrounding him with his Polaroid camera. In turns traditional and abstract, the Flowers series is a captivating exploration of nature’s beauty. As beautifully described by fashion designer Dries Van Noten, “The Polaroid captures a fleeting moment, blossoming into a lasting memory, while the real flower, vibrant and alive, ultimately withers away, reminding us that beauty can be both preserved and ephemeral.”
In the second series, Art, Halard has enlarged a select number of his Polaroids, which he then worked on top with paint, wax, and other materials to give the final results a strong, layered sense of history and memory. Many of the images are made of ancient statuaries or details of Renaissance paintings from Italy and Greece—the tight crop of a marble head, or the folds of 15th-century drapery. “I am delving into the idea that antiquity can be modern,” Halard states in his interview with art curator Bice Curiger, “I like to start with a specific object to turn it into another, transitory object.” Halard’s transformation of the ephemeral into the permanent, in the case of his flowers; and the permanent into the ephemeral, in the case of his Classical-inspired artworks—give power and beauty to these compelling images.

Sudpsuez Fringe, Frog and Tassel: The Art of the Trimmings-Maker in Interior Decoration Annabel Westman
Words by Annabel Westman
Trimmings are often overlooked as mere details of a furnished interior. However, in the past they were seen as vital and costly elements in the decoration of a room. They were used not only on curtains and beds but also on wall hangings, upholstered seat furniture and cushions, providing a visual feast for the eye with their colour and intricate detail. Sometimes more expensive than the rich fabrics they enhanced, trimmings are often the only surviving evidence of a lost decorative scheme, reapplied to replacement textiles or found as fragments in the attic.
This book, the first of its kind, traces their history in Britain and Ireland from 1320 to 1970, examining the design and usage of tassels, fringe, braid (woven lace), gimp and cord and their dependence on French fashion. The substantial text links surviving items in historic houses and museums to written evidence, paintings, drawings and other primary sources to provide a firm framework for dating pieces of less-certain provenance. The importance of the 'laceman', the maker of these trimmings, is also examined within an economic and social context, together with the relationship to the upholsterer and interior decorator in the creation of a fashionable room.
