Information

Silhouette paper cut. White laid paper. 25,6 × 11 cm (10 ⅛ × 4 ⅜ in.). Catalogue raisonné: Richter 142 (plate 26). Slight foxing.

Collection of the Hamburg artist family Speckter (directly from Philipp Otto Runge)

In order to preserve the silhouettes as a collective, we provide the opportunity to purchase them in two convolutes. Convolute 1 contains lot numbers 136-142, Convolute 2 contains lot numbers 143-149.
Lots 143-149 will first be called individually. The knockdowns will be made with reservation. Afterwards, Convolute 2 will be offered as lot number 149a. The starting price is determined by the sum of the hammer prices previously achieved or the sum of the limits of the individual lots. If the Convolute is bid for, the hammer prices of the individual lots shall be cancelled and the highest bidder of the Convolute shall be given priority. If the lot is not bid for, the surcharges of the individual lots will take effect.
