ABOUT

Henri Vanhoenacker started collecting works of Empire art at an early age. In 1996, after his studies in history of art and archaeology at Leuven University, his dream became a reality when he opened a gallery in Courtrai. Today he specializes in 19th century Decorative Arts. His research focuses mainly on the new techniques and creativity displayed in artworks at the World Fairs in the second half of the 19th century.
