About the auction

The 19th century interrogates the Old Masters and turns its attention to the present – modern times have dawned. We are very pleased to present outstanding examples of the most important artists as well as the often surprising artistic positions of (as yet) little-known painters and draftsmen of this so excitingly inspiring, "long" 19th century.
