Impressionist masterpiece | |
|
Peder Severin Krøyer held a deep fascination for natural light and plein-air painting. His talent for capturing fleeting moments in nature – from the serene blue hour by the sea to the radiant light of a sunny day – has earned him his place as one of Denmark’s most celebrated artists.
An impressionist masterpiece by the Skagen painter is now set to go under the hammer with an estimate of DKK 4–6 million. The work in question is “Fru Marie Krøyer i Haven paa Skagen” (Marie Krøyer in the garden in Skagen) from June 1892 – a portrait of his wife amid the radiance of a sun-drenched summer garden. It emerges from one of Krøyer’s most blissful summers in Skagen, and everything in the painting revolves around nature, light and colour. | | |

More than 76 years have passed since a group of progressive artists founded CoBrA at Café Notre Dame in Paris. We’ll be marking this at a magnificent Live Auction and Online Auction, when we’ll be putting the spotlight on one of the most groundbreaking art movements of the 20th century. It was the creativity, community, spontaneity and the experimental approach to art that constituted the core ideas of CoBrA. After the horrors of the two world wars, CoBrA’s ideology emerged as a desire to reform society, transcend conventions and create a better world for mankind.

The world’s most fabled wine | |
|
Château Cheval Blanc 1947 exemplifies a wine that has achieved almost cult status among collectors. Representing a singular period in the viticultural history of Bordeaux, the wine’s craftsmanship cannot be reproduced. As the vintage was produced over 70 years ago, there are very few bottles left, making it extremely rare. | |
