Flemish painting and the De Jonckheere gallery : history

De Jonckheere Gallery: founded in 1976

De Jonckheere Gallery was founded in 1976 and specialises in the study and sale of 15th, 16th and 17th century Flemish paintings. It has made a name for itself as a reference among art galleries by selecting the finest works on the market.

De Jonckheere opens its doors in Paris

In 1983, this specialist in Flemish painting opened its doors in Paris to welcome collectors and art-lovers from all over the world to its gallery at 100 rue du Faubourg Saint Honoré, a few steps away from the Elysée Palace.

Since then, its rigorous studies, the quality of its catalogues and its reliable choices have confirmed the reputation of De Jonckheere’s Parisian gallery.

Italian vedute and Belgian painters

After Flemish painting, De Jonckheere expanded its activity to 18th century masters of Italian vedute and 19th and 20th century Belgian painters.
