The UK government has placed an export bar on four ornate panels by Flemish artist De Vély, emphasizing their unique cultural and artistic significance.
According to the DCMS, these 17th-century panels are the only surviving works by De Vély, which urges the urgency for a domestic acquisition.
The export bar will expire on March 17, highlighting the risk of the panels leaving the UK without a suitable buyer stepping in to preserve them.
Described as a 'tour de force', the panels are recognized as a brilliant display of technical virtuosity, showcasing the artist's intricate craftsmanship.
