11 Portrætkunst, Fabergé og kinesiske skatte I september havde vi fornøjelsen af at sælge et barneportræt af Christen Købke til Nationalmuseet i Stockholm. På denne auktion får vi selskab af flere portrætter af Købke heriblandt et af hans yndlingssøster Conradine foran vinduet i deres fælles barndomshjem på Kastellet, hvor deres far var bager. Hun er skildret med en stærk intimitet, som Købke har opnået ved at lade hende stå knivskarpt mod det skitseprægede interiør. Et bevidst kunstnerisk greb, der sikrer, at al opmærksomhed ledes mod hendes personlighed. Købke gav Conradine værket i bryllupsgave i 1830, og det har hidtil været i familiens eje (Kat.nr. 10). Portrætgenren mestrede også svenskeren Carl Larsson, som man lige nu kan opleve på Ordrupgaards anbefalelsesværdige udstilling Carl Larsson. Det gode liv. Det hører til sjældenhederne, at hans værker ses på auktionsmarkedet i Danmark, så det er en stor glæde at kunne præsentere portrættet Ingrid och röda Liljan fra Den lille pige gengiver hushjælpens datter Ingrid med klare blå øjne og lys sommerkjole. Larsson er netop berømt for sine idylliske skildringer af hverdagslivet i sit hjem Lilla Hyttnäs i Sverige. Skønheden og livsglæden i disse værker er uomgængelig ganske som i den udbudte akvarel (kat.nr. 49). Også blandt medlemmerne af kunstnerkolonien i Skagen var portrættet en foretrukken genre, og i et charmerende forstudie til det berømte Sankt Hansblus på Skagen Strand har P.S. Krøyer i 1903 skildret datteren Vibeke i selskab med svogeren, ingeniør Valdemar Triepke, der smilende bøjer sig ned for at vise den opmærksomme pige det store bål (Kat.nr. 39). Krøyer er i det hele taget rigt repræsenteret på auktionen med både aftenstemninger, havmotiver og hjemvendende fiskere. I 1900-tallet var mange danskere udstationeret i Kina og lod sig fascinere af landets kulturarv. Det var en tid, hvor kineserne var mere optagede af revolutionstanker, og hvor antik kunst efterhånden blev bandlyst på ordre af Formand Mao. Kunsten blev derfor tilgængelig for disse danskere, og det er årsagen til, at der i dag findes mange prominente samlinger i Danmark. Med på auktionen har vi en prægtig Ming buddha af forgyldt bronze fra samlingen efter den tidligere direktør for Østasiatisk Kompagni, C.K. Hansen (Kat.nr. 171). Andre af auktionens kinesiske klenodier stammer fra Sofus Black, der var udstationeret for Det Store Nordiske Telegrafselskab. På de internationale auktioner udbyder vi kinesisk kunst to gange årligt, og det samme gælder kunst fra Rusland. I sidstnævnte kategori præsenterer vi denne gang et stort udvalg fra juveleren Carl Fabergé i Skt. Petersborg, heriblandt en trefløjet billedramme, der blev udført af mesteren Anders Nevalainen i årene (Kat.nr. 350). Vi vender blikket endnu længere tilbage i historien med flere end tyve antikker, der stammer fra hele middelhavsområdet og hvoraf de fleste dækker et tidsmæssigt spænd fra det 5. århundrede f.kr. til det 3. århundrede e.kr. Et af højdepunkterne er et romersk Medusahoved fra Traianeum-templet i Pergamon, der blev bygget som en hyldest til Zeus i perioden e.kr. og udgravet af det arkæologiske museum Berliner Antikensammlung i slutningen af 1800-tallet (Kat.nr. 248). Man får også mulighed for at komme på forkant med den særlige julegave. Auktionen tæller en række ekstravagante stjerneskud i form af bl.a. en halskæde med en hjerteformet kridhvid diamant på 5.02 ct. samt en sommerfuglebroche med en stor ubehandlet rubin, talrige diamanter og en lotusblomstfarvet Padparadscha en ædelsten, der først blev opdaget på Sri Lanka i 1750 og i dag regnes for en af verdens absolut mest sjældne (Kat.nr. 627 og 596). Velkommen til årets juleauktion! Jesper Bruun Rasmussen

12 Portrait Art, Fabergé and Chinese Treasures In September, we had the pleasure of selling a child portrait by Christen Købke to the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm. At this auction, we will be in the company of several portraits by Købke including one that shows his favourite sister Conradine in front of the window in their childhood home in Copenhagen. She is portrayed with strong intimacy, which Købke achieved by letting her appear razor-sharp against the sketch-like interior an artistic tool which ensures that all attention is directed towards her personality. Købke gave Conradine the painting as a wedding present in 1830, and until now it has been in the ownership of the family (Lot No. 10). The Swede Carl Larsson, whose work is currently being shown at Ordrupgaard in the recommendable exhibition Carl Larsson. The good life, also mastered the portrait genre. It is rare to find his pieces on the auction market in Denmark, and so we are delighted to be able to present the portrait Ingrid och röda Liljan (Ingrid and the red lily) from The little girl is the housekeeper s daughter Ingrid with the clear blue eyes and light summer dress. Larsson is famous for his idyllic portrayals of every day life in his home Lilla Hyttnäs in Sweden, and the beauty and joie de vivre in these pieces are inescapable just as in the watercolour on offer (Lot No. 49). Also among the members of the artists colony in Skagen, the portrait was a preferred genre, and in a charming study for the famous Sankt Hansblus på Skagen Strand (Bonfire at Skagen Beach, St. John s Eve) from 1903, P.S. Krøyer has portrayed his daughter Vibeke together with Krøyer s brother-in-law, engineer Valdemar Triepke, who is bending down to show the attentive girl the large bonfire (Lot No. 39). On the whole, the auction presents numerous Krøyer paintings including depictions of evening moods, sea themes and returning fishermen. During the 20th century, many Danes were stationed in China, and they were fascinated with the country s cultural heritage. At the time, the Chinese were preoccupied with revolutionary thoughts, and antique art was later banned on orders from Chairman Mao. The cultural heritage thus became obtainable for Danish collectors, and this is the reason why so many prominent private collections are found in Denmark today. Up for auction is a large and magnificent Ming gilt bronze Buddha from the collection of the former director of the East Asiatic Company, C.K. Hansen (Lot No. 171). Other Chinese treasures at this auction originate from the collector Sofus Black, who worked for the Great Northern Telegraph Company in China from At our international auctions, we offer Chinese art and Russian art and antiques twice a year. In the latter category, we present a large selection of silver from the jeweller Carl Fabergé in St. Petersburg, including a tri-fold photo frame created by Anders Nevalainen, workmaster from (Lot No. 350). We will have a look even further back in time with more than 20 antiquities, which originate from the whole of the Mediterranean area and where most of them cover a time span from the 5th century BC to the 3rd century AD. One of the highlights is a Roman Medusa head from the Traianeum temple in Pergamon, which was built as a tribute to Zeus in the period AD and excavated by the archaeological museum Berliner Antikensammlung at the end of the 19th century (Lot No. 248). At this auction, one also has the opportunity of acquiring a very special early Christmas present. The auction contains a number of extravagant shining stars such as a necklace set with a heart-shaped brilliantly white diamond weighing approx ct., as well as a brooch set with a large natural ruby, numerous diamonds and a Padparadscha in the colour of a lotus flower a gemstone that was only discovered in 1750 in Sri Lanka and today is considered one of the world s absolute rarest (Lot Nos. 627 and 596). Welcome to this year s Christmas auction! Jesper Bruun Rasmussen

In the spring of 1838 Constantin Hansen travelled with his friend Jørgen Roed from Rome to Naples. They arrived the 15th of May. Since the travel passport of Constantin Hansen still exists, we can follow the two friend's route and stops on their way, among others the village Mola di Gaeta, where Cicero's villa is located. In his letters Roed refers to the Mola area as a kind of paradise on earth. The place where Cicero had lived was certainly worth a visit. H. C. Andersen who travelled in Italy in 1834 also mentions the place, and he even made a sketch of the baths in his diary. DKK 30,000-40,000 / 4,000-5, BRUUN RASMUSSEN BREDGADE AUCTION 853
