9 Julen nærmer sig, og vi åbner dørene til årets sidste og mest omfangsrige auktion i Bredgade. Vanen tro indleder vi med ældre malerier, og et af de mest stemningsfulde værker er Otto Baches kendte optrin med heste og folkeliv foran Lindenborg Kro ved Roskilde fra En større version af værket blev udstillet på Charlottenborg i 1878 og samme år erhvervet af kongehuset. I anledning af frimærkeudstillingen Hafnia i 1976 kom skildringen til at udgøre motivet på et frimærkeark, hvilket gjorde det kendt i brede kredse (kat.nr. 74). Det er en stor ære denne gang at kunne præsentere en af landets fineste private samlinger af dansk barok- og rokokosølv samlet gennem en lang årrække af Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller (kat.nr ). I anledning af 400-året for Romanov-dynastiet, der regerede Rusland frem til revolutionen i 1917, er en del af auktionen dedikeret til russisk kunst. Et af synonymerne med landet er uden tvivl Fabergé, der blev grundlagt i Skt. Petersborg i 1842 og siden har fremstillet overdådige juvelerarbejder heriblandt den udbudte bordklokke og seks skjorteknapper, der blev givet i gave af kejserinde Dagmar til medlemmer af det danske kongehus (kat.nr. 233 og 232). Vi byder sågar på hemmelige militære oplysninger fra 1697 skrevet med usynligt blæk i et brev signeret af den russiske zar, Peter den Store (kat.nr. 206). Blandt de europæiske antikviteter finder man et par rokokokommoder fra den nordtyske by Altona, hvis snedkerværksteder var blandt de førende inden for møbelproduktion i 1700-tallet (kat.nr. 340). Auktionens store Louis XVI prismekrone stammer fra samme periode, hvor den blev til på det legendariske værksted Werner og Mieth i Berlin, der gennem tiden var leverandører til alverdens prominente residenser (kat.nr. 379). Vi tager også turen til Østen med 90 effekter fra primært Kina, heriblandt et udvalg af silkescrolls med fortællende motiver, hvor mennesker, dyr og natur optræder i skøn forening. De æstetiske scrolls er en kombination af kunst og kalligrafiske inskriptioner, og gennem tiden har deres ejere anvendt dem ved særlige lejligheder til beundring og diskussion af de skildrede legender en tradition, der går helt tilbage til Han-dynastiet (kat.nr ). Der er også rig mulighed for at komme på forkant med julegaverne, når vi svinger hammeren over smykker og armbåndsure. Et af højdepunkterne her er en sjælden pink safir fra Burma, der er eksponent for nogle af verdens fineste ædelsten af denne type (kat.nr. 719). De fleste herrer vil med garanti blive glade for at finde et af de udbudte ure fra hæderkronede brands som Rolex, Audemars Piguet eller Patek Philippe under juletræet (kat.nr. 887, 896, 895). Jesper Bruun Rasmussen

10 Christmas is fast approaching and we re opening the doors to the last and most extensive auction of the year at Bredgade. True to form, we ll be starting with fine art. One of the most evocative works featured is Otto Bache s famous scene depicting horses and street life in front of Lindenborg Kro near Roskilde from A larger version of the work was exhibited at Charlottenborg in 1878 and acquired by the court that same year. On the occasion of the Hafnia stamp exhibition in 1976, the painting was used as the motif on a sheet of postage stamps, making it widely known (cat. no. 74). It is a great honour this time to be able to present one of Denmark s finest private collections of Danish Baroque and Rococo silver, collected over a great many years by Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller (cat. no ). To mark the 400th anniversary of the Romanov dynasty, which ruled Russia until the revolution in 1917, part of the auction is dedicated to Russian art. A name synonymous with Russia is without a doubt Fabergé, which was founded in St. Petersburg in 1842, and which has produced opulent jeweller s work ever since including the bell push and six shirt buttons up for auction, given as a gift by Empress Dagmar to members of the Danish royal family (Cat. No. 233 and 232). We are even offering military secrets written in invisible ink in a letter signed by the Russian Tsar Peter the Great! (cat. no. 206) Among the European antiques is a pair of Rococo commodes from the north German town of Altona, whose joinery workshops were among the leaders in 18th century furniture production (cat. no. 340). The auction s large Louis XVI chandelier dates from the same period, and was made at the legendary Werner and Mieth workshop in Berlin, supplier to eminent residences the world over (cat. no. 379). We also take a trip to the Orient with 90 items, primarily from China, including a selection of silk scrolls with narrative motifs, beautifully depicting people, animals and nature. The aesthetic scrolls are a combination of art and calligraphic inscriptions, and over the years, their owners have used them on special occasions for admiration and discussion of the legends depicted a tradition dating right back to the Han Dynasty (cat. no ). There is also ample opportunity to get started on your Christmas shopping when we swing the hammer over jewellery and wristwatches. One of the highlights here is a rare pink sapphire from Burma, which is an exponent of some of the world s finest gems of this type (cat. no. 719). Most men would undoubtedly be delighted to find one of the watches up for auction from distinguished brands such as Rolex, Audemars Piguet or Patek Philippe under the Christmas tree (cat. no. 887, 896, 895).

15 The 400th anniversary of the coronation of Tsar Mikhail Feodorovich Romanov in 1613 This autumn we commemorate the 400th anniversary of the coronation in 1613 of Tsar Mikhail Feodorovich Romanov, whose descendants ruled Russia until the revolution in At this auction, we will be offering Russian art and antiques with Imperial, Royal and private provenance. The first formal connections between Russia and Denmark were established between King Hans of Denmark and Grand Duke Ivan III of Moscow in With the Romanov dynasty on the Russian throne from 1613, the relations intensified. During the Great Northern War, for example, the Danish-Russian alliance was strengthened by a visit to Copenhagen in 1716 by Tsar Peter the Great. Danish-Russian trade also increased during the late 18th century, and in the 19th century, Danish artists and officers worked in Russia. Danish-Russian relations were further boosted in 1866, when Princess Dagmar of Denmark married the heir to the Russian throne, the future Tsar Alexander III of Russia. Tsaritsa Maria Feodorovna, as she was known from 1881, introduced the Danish business community to Russia, with companies such as Store Nordiske Telegrafselskab (the Great Northern Telegraph Company) and ØK (the East Asiatic Company). Trade routes and interests also went the other way: From , Alexander Nevsky Church was built at Bredgade in Copenhagen, and Russia participated at the Nordic Exhibition of Industry, Agriculture and Art in Copenhagen in The Russian Imperial yacht Standart was also built by B&W in Copenhagen from The connections with Russia were further strengthened by the marriage of Princess Alexandrine of Mecklenburg-Schwerin and Prince Christian (X) of Denmark in Princess Alexandrine was the daughter of Grand Duchess Anastasia of Russia, who, incidentally, was the cousin of Tsar Alexander III. In 1919, following the Russian revolution, Tsaritsa Maria Feodorovna took up residence at Hvidøre Castle, north of Copenhagen, and in 1920 she was joined by her daughter, Grand Duchess Olga, and Olga s husband and two sons. The Empress became a natural figurehead for Russian emigrants, and her funeral in 1928 marked the end of an era dating right back to Grand Duchess Olga and her family lived in Denmark until 1948, when they emigrated to Canada. Following negotiations between the Danish and Russian governments, the Empress was reburied in St. Petersburg in 2006, a move regarded as a symbol of the continuing relations between Denmark and Russia. On Monday 2 December, we will be following up with a Russian online auction at bruun-rasmussen.dk Martin Hans Borg

35 206 PETER THE GREAT b. Moscow 1672, d. St. Petersburg 1725 Autograph double-letter signed by "Pieter" ( ) [Tsar Peter the Great] for [Andrey Andreevich] Vinius. 2 leaves. Folio. Dated Riga, April 8 [1697]. First leaf addressed to Vinius is written in ink, in clear Russian. Second leaf is written in invisible ink and has later been treated with contemporary liquid chemicals and flames to make the writing visible. On a long strip mounted to the invisible letter the Tsar has written a clear instruction for the receiver, Vinius, to indicate that the enclosed invisible letter, probably to general Ivanovich, is enclosed and has to be deciphered.

Further information and/or transcription/translation in Russian, English and Danish available upon request. This important signed letter is written under Peter the Great s great journey to Europe and is one of the most important contemporary sources to his stay in Riga in In March 1697 he travelled incognito to Western Europe on an 18-month journey with a large Russian delegation of 250 people - the so-called Grand Embassy only few members of the delegacy knew about his real identity. During Easter the delegation visited the Swedish city of Riga. The Swedish governor in Riga was no less than Erik Dahlbergh ( ) who later became a national arch-enemy of the state of Denmark and a key operative in the Great Northern war. Before leaving Russia, Peter made no secret of the fact that he was travelling to observe and to learn, as well as to recruit foreign experts for Russia. He also made preparations for transferring his military observations to central figures in the Russian army. This could be accomplished by writing messages in invisible ink. Originally it was planned that the Embassy should continue the voyage from Riga, but a spring thaw set in and the delegation was forced to stay for some time in the city. Peter passed the time acting a military spy studying the ramparts and fortifications around the city of Riga, established under the guidance by the Swedes. On 8 April 1697 he wrote this very illustrious letter about his experiences in Riga, the main contemporary source to his impressions from his stay in Riga which turned out to be very influential later on. The stay was not at all what Peter had expected. In the letter he describes his disappointment with the unwelcoming behaviour the Swedes showed him and his delegation. Today historians regard Peter the Great s unwelcome stay in Riga as a focal point in history. Thus the lousy treatment he and the members of his delegation experienced during their stay became instrumental in Russia entering The Great Northern War three years later the emperor had not felt the neighbourly friendliness he had been promised by Erik Dahlbergh beforehand. 158 BRUUN RASMUSSEN BREDGADE AUCTION 845

38 The Riga-letter is not only famous for its unique documentation from quite a unique event in world history. The fact that the ruler of a great empire - Peter the Great - gave up power for a longer period and travelled abroad to get acquainted with a completely different culture than his own, had never been seen before. This uniqe and important document tells us about this journey and contains the main source of information about Peter s impressions from his stay in Riga. It documents and describes his spying on western countries and his use and exchange of secret information important to the state of Russia - both military information about Riga and also the rumours about the Swedish King Carl XII s political ambitions. Thus the double-letter is one of the most important contemporary source to document the history of Peter the Great and his encounters in Riga at this particular historical period and is of invaluable historical importance. First leaf: Vinius, Today we started from here towards Mitau. We have been living on the other side of the river which broke up on Easter Day itself. [Sunday after Palm Sunday fell 1697 on 4 April according to the old style]. There we lived like slaves and could only satiate ourselves through the eyes. The merchants here are clad in mantles and they have a very honourable appearance but they cursed and sweared profusely for every kopek when our coach drivers began selling the sledges and they demanded triple prices themselves. In other respects there is no news at all. Having left you to the care of God we ask you to make your bows dutifully to our friends and to our entourage. From Riga, 8, April. Pieter. Second leaf: Will you be so kind as to implore the general [the general is probably A.M. Golovin ] that he shall stand guard by our cottage. [Code-word that says that the following is written in invisible ink]. [Pasted note]: Show this letter to Gavriil Ivanovic (Golovkin) [Leader of the Russian Foreign Office]. [Written in invisible ink]: By all accounts there should be 2780 soldiers. We went through the city and the fortress where the soldiers are posted in five different localities, all in all less than 1000 men and this is said to be the grand total. The city is well fortified but not completed. They are very uneasy and they slip nobody in, neither in the city nor elsewhere, not even under surveillance. They are anything but agreeable. The soldiers have their pay once a year, the corporals each twelve times, the sergeants each 24, and all are in receipt of three barrels of grain. On my way to this place, in an inn before Riga, a drunken [Swedish] nobleman said: Our King will proclaim his son King of Poland and with that purpose troops are clandestinely being equipped under pretext of intending to send them against the Danes and money has been sent to Poland. Inform the Magnates [in Poland] so that they can be on their guard as soon as possible and prevent this, either through the Resident [a Russian diplomat in Poland of the lowest rank] or through a special ambassador.
