Belfius Art Collection

[1] This makes it the largest company-based Belgian art collection, while being considered one of the 100 most important worldwide.

[2] The Belgian state took over the bank in 2011, so effectively owns the art collection as well.

Small selections of the collection are open to the public two Saturdays every month.

[2] The plans, as of August 2018, to denationalize Belfius partially or completely by going to a stock exchange with it, have raised concerns about the future of the collection, with calls to separate the art collection from the bank and keep it completely in the hands of the government.

The below list is based on the works described on the Belfius Art Collection website, and artists and artworks mentioned in other sources.

Peter Paul Rubens , 1640, The Rape of the Sabine Virgins
Léon Spilliaert , 1909, Breakwater
