Lecture by the award-winning British architect and Professor Richard Weston,
author of the monograph “Utzon – Inspiration, Vision, Architecture”
The lecture will be held in English
Fra Utzons private kunstsamling
til fotografiets skæve eksistenser
Et af de helt store trækplastre på denne auktion er en række værker fra den danske arkitekt
Jørn Utzons private kunstsamling. Udbuddet vidner om hans særlige blik for sin samtids allerstørste navne og rummer bl.a. værker af Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque og Fernand Léger.
I 1957 vandt Utzon den internationale arkitektkonkurrence, der førte til Operahuset i Sydney.
Han samarbejdede med den franske arkitekt og kunstner Le Corbusier omkring indretningen,
og et af auktionens højdepunkter er Le Corbusiers gobelin ”Les dés sont jetés” (Terningerne er
kastet) fra 1960 (kat.nr. 849). Læs mere om Utzons samling s. 76.
En anden af kunsthistoriens sværvægtere står bag skulpturen ”Conjunction XV”. Den er udført af den engelske billedhugger Lynn Chadwick i 1970. Årstallet hører til kunstnerens mest
frugtbare periode, hvor han med inspiration hentet fra Påskeøernes oprindelige kunsthåndværk
arbejdede med disse særegne abstrakte skulpturer. Det udbudte værk har været ejet af et dansk
ægtepar, der i forbindelse med erhvervelsen fik besøg af kunstneren, som blev begejstret over
placeringen af skulpturen i deres have i Charlottenlund. Chadwicks karriere blev for alvor skudt
i gang, da han i 1956 tog alle med storm på Venedig Biennalen og som den yngste nogensinde
vandt udstillingens eftertragtede skulpturpris. I dag er han repræsenteret på førende museer
som MoMA, Tate Gallery og Centre Georges Pompidou (kat.nr. 866).
Den danske kunst er rigt repræsenteret på auktionen – heriblandt med værker af Peter LouisJensen, Poul Gernes og Per Kirkeby. I begyndelsen af 1960’erne stiftede de sammen Eks-skolen,
som markerede et nybrud i dansk kunst. Den var tænkt som et radikalt opgør med den etablerede danske modernisme, og målet var at bringe kunsten ned i øjenhøjde med det bredere
samfund. Det er bl.a. to af Louis-Jensens collagelignende “Strukturtavler” fra 1964 (kat.nr. 887
og 888), en karakteristisk komposition af Gernes fra 1961 (kat.nr. 884) og værket “Leoparden”
af Kirkeby (kat.nr. 889), der tegner Eks-skolens bidrag til auktionen. Blandt de danske kunstnere finder man også Erik Thommesen med fem skulpturer og et par tegninger (f.eks. kat. nr.
842) samt Jens Adolf Jerichau med en skitse til hovedværket ”Havguder” fra 1916 (kat.nr. 810).
Afsnittet med kunstfotografier anføres af en række værker fra Paris af den berømte fotograf
Brassaï. I begyndelsen af 1930’erne satte han sig for at skildre den franske hovedstads natteliv
– uden for i de mørke gader og inden for på byens forlystelsesetablissementer. Han fotograferede forbrydere, prostituerede, alfonser og transvestitter, og værkerne blev til de banebrydende
fotobøger ”Paris de Nuit” fra 1933 og ”The Secret Paris of the Thirties” fra 1976 (f.eks. kat.
nr. 1075 og 1076). De skæve og fremmedgjorte eksistenser var også det kunstneriske omdrejningspunkt for den lidt yngre fotograf Diane Arbus, der er repræsenteret med et portræt af to
transseksuelle (kat. nr. 1107) samt en portfolio med 12 af hendes bedste værker
(kat.nr. 1108). Fredag den 29. maj kl. 15 er der foredrag om Brassaï i Bredgade 33
ved leder af vores fotoafdeling, Christine Almlund.

From Utzon’s Private Collection
to Quirky Characters in Photography
One of this auction’s major attractions is a series of pieces from the Danish architect Jørn Utzon’s private art collection. The collection reflects the Danish architect’s exquisite eye for the
greatest artists of his time, including Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque and Fernand Léger. In
1957 Utzon won the international architectural competition for the construction of the Sydney
Opera House. He collaborated on the interior of the opera house with the French architect and
artist Le Corbusier, and one of the auction’s undisputed highlights is a tapestry by Le Corbusier
from 1960 entitled ”Les dés sont jetés” (The dice are cast) (cat. no. 849). Read more about
Utzon’s collection on p. 76.
Another giant of art history is the creator of the sculpture ”Conjunction XV”. The sculpture was
made in 1970 by the British sculptor Lynn Chadwick during his most productive period, where
he, inspired by the Easter Island’s original craftwork, worked with a series of unique abstract
sculptures. A Danish couple has owned the sculpture up for auction. In connection with their
acquisition of the sculpture Chadwick visited the couple and was thrilled with the location of
his sculpture in their garden in Charlottenlund. Chadwick’s career truly took off, when he in
1956 took the Venice Biennale by storm and became the youngest artist ever to win the coveted
International Sculpture Prize. Today he is exhibited at leading museums such as MOMA, Tate
Gallery and Centre Georges Pompidou (cat. no. 866).
Danish art is richly represented at the auction as well - including works by Peter Louis-Jensen,
Poul Gernes and Per Kirkeby. In the early 1960s they established the Ex-school, which marked a
new direction in Danish art. It was conceived as a radical departure from the established Danish
modernism, and the goal was to bring art down to the level of a wider public. At this auction
the Ex-school’s contribution consists of two of Louis-Jensen’s collage-like ”Structure Panels”
from 1964 (cat. no. 887 and 888), a characteristic composition by Gernes from 1961 (cat. no.
884) and ”The Leopard” by Kirkeby (cat. no. 889). Among the Danish artists you can also find
Erik Thommesen with five sculptures and a couple of drawings (e.g. cat. no. 842) as well as Jens
Adolf Jerichau with a sketch of his major piece ”Sea Gods” from 1916 (cat. no. 810).
The section with art photographs is led by a number of images from Paris by the famous
photographer Brassaï. In the early 1930s he set out to portray the French capital’s nightlife outside on the dark streets and inside in the city’s entertainment venues. He photographed
criminals, prostitutes, pimps and transvestites, and the photographs were collected in the
ground-breaking photography books ”Paris de Nuit” from 1933 and ”The Secret Paris of the
Thirties” from 1976 (e.g. cat. no. 1075 and 1076). The quirky and alienated characters were
also the artistic epicentre for the younger photographer Diane Arbus, who is represented by a
portrait of two transgender people (cat. no. 1107) and a portfolio of 12 of her best photographs
(cat. no. 1108). On Friday 29 May at 3 pm in Bredgade 33 our Head of Photography, Christine
Almlund, will give a lecture on Brassaï.

"Bognemark" has been the inspiration for many of Oluf Høst's paintings, and the open gate
in one of the wings of the farm must be one of the most well depicted gates in history. The
artist's return to the farm, however, signifies anything but an unconscious repetition. On the
contrary it is the place where the painter's registration of the light and the vibration of colour
reaches masterful heights. All in all more than 200 images were painted from the courtyard,
all leaving their own impression. The many images testify to Høst's lifelong exploration of the
basic element, which the painting grew out of.

to jump into the water from his boat to save the foam-born. It was [the painter Albert] Naur who suggested
that I buy it. The next year I bought one with collage, newspaper clippings, cigarette box cover etc. Two tiny
images. Lundstrøm himself I did not know, maybe it was the year he was abroad".

806 ADAM FISCHER
CD
b. Frederiksberg 1888, d. Ordrup 1968
"Fransk soldat" (A French Soldier), 1918. Signed A.F. Wood. H. 39 cm.
Literature: Poul Uttenreiter: "Adam Fischer", Vor tids kunst no. 20, stylictic variant ill. on the cover.
Literature: "København/Paris/Retur: Omkring Ellen og Adam Fischer", ill. p. 30-31.
Provenance: Editor Møller Nielsen, Århus Stiftstidende.
It was not a given that Adam Fischer (1888-1968) as a sculptor was to occupy a central position in recent Danish art history. The first years of his schooling took place at the Royal Danish Academy’s School of
Pain­ting in the period 1908-1913. Yet his attempts with painting were, according to his own opinion, not
tremendously successful. That this was the case also had a natural explanation. At the age of 25 Fischer
discovered that he was colour blind. This was undeniably an unfortunate diagnosis for a young man who had
decided to dedicate himself to painting. Something had to be done and rather than give up on his artistic
ambitions Fischer focused on sculptures instead.
A defining moment came during his stay in Paris, which he first visited during a study tour in 1913. It was
soon clear to Fischer that living in the city of cities for a longer period of time could be a catalyst for his
artistic development, and around the time of World War I you could hardly have found a better place.
The artistic counter reaction to the horrors of war and the fractured worldview that followed were during
these years truly expressed through cubism and the movement away from the naturalistic representation
of the shape of things. Fischer worked his way into the new idiom, and he threw himself into the work with
the sculptural moulding with an almost scientific approach. Sketches illustrate his preoccupation with the
forms’ geometric and proportional conditions. Like his painter colleague, Vilhelm Lundstrøm, Fischer sought
perfection and the completed construction of the artwork composed around the golden ratio. “French
Soldier” is an exquisite example of this, not only in its simplification of the forms’ natural appearance, but
also in the mastering of the sparse use of effects, which add an emotional expression to the sculpture. The
sculpture from 1918 is reminiscent of both African mask art, the mythological figures on Easter Island and
Modigliani’s almost childlike depiction of his subject: Childlike is here understood as an immediate and pure
perception of the subject’s inherent character and its spirit. Besides the sculpture up for auction Fischer
created a second copy in limestone, which provides a unique basis for comparison for the different materials’
character: The warm glow of the wood sculpture against the cruder expressions of the stone.
Fischer shared his preoccupation with the dynamics of form with the Mexican artist Diego Rivera (18861957), with whom Fischer established a close friendship. The theoretical conversations about the legality
of modernist art and the development of Cubism were a catalyst for Fischer’s showdown with the stylistic
neatness of neoclassicism. Fischer spent a total of 20 years at the centre of the Parisian art scene, which also
birthed a collegial friendship with world-renowned French artist Artistide Maillol (1861-1944).
As Fischer settled permanently in Paris in 1915, he also married. Ellen and Adam Fischer’s artistic fellowship
and life-long journey was celebrated in 1982 with the exhibition “Copenhagen/Paris/Round-trip” at both
the National Gallery of Denmark and Randers Art Museum.
“French Soldier” is a major work of art within Danish modernism, both in its cubist perfection, as well as in
its reference to the historic realities and the capsized world-view, which World War I triggered.

A composition with two figures on the reverse related to the painting "Elskov" (Love) (1915)
in the collection of ARoS Aarhus Kunstmuseum. The last variant of the motif "Havguder" (Sea
Gods) in the collection of Museum Jorn, Silkeborg (T.A. no. 177).
Literature: Troels Andersen: "Jens Adolf Jerichau (1890-1916). En biografi og en fortegnelse over hans

Exhibited: "Jens Adolf Jerichau 1890-1916", Kunstforeningen, Copenhagen, 1966, cat. no. 51.
Provenance: Probably acquired directly from the artist's sister, Elisabeth, by the present owners family.
In his biography of Jens Adolf Jerichau, art historian Troels Andersen describes how the artist in his
very short life of only 26 years underwent quite an extraordinary, artistic development with the fullness of a long life lived. In opposition to contemporary ideals, artistic standards and any wider recognition. Jens Adolf Jerichau’s large figure images evolve - with art historian William Wanscher as
a mentor - within a quite peculiar intersection between the Renaissance and the ‘grand style’ of the
classical period and the contemporary French modernism represented by such different names as Paul
Cézanne, Paul Gauguin, Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso. During a very short period of only 3-4 years
up to his death, Jerichau creates an expressive, spontaneous method of painting, where the starting
point may be classical, figurative and motivic, but where the painting itself, the strokes and the colourism eventually become the true foundation.
Jerichau already works with the subject matter of “Sea Gods” in 1915, but in the year of his death
- 1916 - he returns to the subject in paintings, including the painting offered here. The figures in
the foreground form a wave motion, and a rearing figure of a sea monster is centrally placed in a
picturesquely released, compositional and coloristic, superbly balanced composition that represents
the culmination of an intense artistic development. Jens Adolf Jerichau was ahead of his time, and
Troels Andersen describes how the artist was hesitant to consider consummate paintings as finished:
“These ‘unfinished’ images show perhaps the strongest aspect of Jerichau as a painter. In the paintings, the subjects are submitted, with an almost complete ruthlessness, to the colour’s development
in dramatic, expressive action. Such a spontaneous work method could not be accepted, not even by
those who knew him best“ (TA p. 86) .

‘Light’, ‘surface’, ‘equilibrium’, ‘harmony’ and ‘monumentality’ are some of the words that are
often mentioned when Vilhelm Lundstrøm’s most iconic, classic and increasingly rare works
from the 1930s are described. The emphasis on clarity can also be found in the artist’s own
statements: “There has to be order between the image’s various elements, and this order reveals
itself, when all the lines and surfaces of colour are aligned in a specific and shared harmony ...
I for my part have the pronounced impression that there ARE things in nature - people, animals,
etc. - that are so complex that they, through the eyes, are experienced as something unreasonable and unsightly. Something smooth, firm and round is, I think, direct and immediately
beautiful. The eyes enjoy it in the same way as the ears appreciate pure notes”(Quote from Otto
Gelsted’s “Words by Vilhelm Lundstrøm,” in cat. for the memorial exhibition 1951).
The work offered here is an excellent example of how Lundstrøm, with Preben Wilmann’s words,
finds a way into the “essence of a human being without departing from the principles on which
his contemporary still lifes are based”. Preben Wilmann quotes the painter Ejler Bille for an accurate characterization of Lundstrøm’s portraits, which are not portraits that depict, but idols,
archetypes or even Goddesses: “When he paints a woman, he actually paints her in the same
way as he would have painted a water jug. But since he also paints a water jug, as he would
have painted a woman, this absurdity is removed”. (P. P. 236-38).

"Den første kærlighed" (The First Love). Signed Axel Poulsen 1913. White marble.
H. 170 cm.
The sculpture "The First Love" is Axel Poulsen's breakthrough piece, and it was a large
part of the reason why Poulsen was awarded the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts'
Eckersberg Medal in 1914. The work was created in Rome and the figures' slender limbs
are clearly inspired by the early Italian renaissance and especially Donatello (13861466), whom Axel Poulsen felt artistically akin to. Axel Poulsen shared his interest for
the early renaissance with his contemporary colleague Einar Utzon-Frank (1888-1955),
who, however, to a greater degree was focused on the formal inspiration, while Axel
Poulsen was interested in the universal human themes.
A version of the motif - created in 1916 - can be found in Copenhagen in the collection
at the National Gallery of Denmark, and a version in plaster can be found in the collection at BRANDTS - Museum for Art and Visual Culture in Odense.

Provenance: Mrs. Kamma Madsen and Mr. and Mrs. Eduard and Ellen Jørgensen, Hotel Dania, Silkeborg. Acquired directly from the artist and not
previously offered in public sale.
Letter from the hotel owner Ellen Jorgensen is included: "In Asger Jorn's later
years, he often stayed at Hotel Dania, Silkeborg. In connection with one of
these stays he offers my husband, Eduard Jørgensen, the chance to purchase
one of his paintings. My husband buys it while he is employed as a director.
My husband buys the hotel from Mrs. Kamma Madsen in 1960, when the
picture still hangs in our restaurant. Asger Jorn often comes for a visit in
Silkeborg, and on one occasion he offers to buy back the picture at twice the
purchasing price! But by then the picture was not for sale".
The painting was created in connection with - and in its motif related to - the
two earlier masterpieces and monumental series "Årstiderne" (The Seasons)
(1948-1953) and the series "Af den stumme myte" (On the Silent Myth) at
Silkeborg Public Library. It was painted during and around the artist's stay at
Silkeborg Sanatorium. Paintings from this period, often populated with the
so-called 'Aganakker' - threatening or smiling animal creatures - are often
described as a highlight of Jorn's Nordic painting, before he left Denmark.

CD
b. Vejrum 1914, d. Århus 1973
"Uden titel" (Untitled), 1946. Unsigned. Oil on canvas. 100 x 69 cm.
Literature: Guy Atkins: "Jorn in Scandinavia 1930-1953", London, 1968, no. 450, ill.
Provenance: The collection of Ole Reimer, Copenhagen.
Provenance: Private collection, Denmark.
In the summer of 1944, Asger Jorn lives with art collector Elna Fonnesbech-Sandberg
in Tibirke. Elna Fonnesbech-Sandberg's nickname is "Dida", and during this period
Asger Jorn signs a series of watercolours with the signature "ASKA". This leads to the
term "Didaska Images", describing a number of paintings created primarily in 19441945. But variations on the theme can also be found in works from 1946, where the
painting in question is from. The Didaska images typically show two bird-figures in an
intimate relationship or interwoven, and the motif has obviously been interpreted as
a symbol of the erotic attraction between Asger Jorn and Elna Fonnesbech-Sandberg.
In this strongly lit and highly picturesque composition, two upright bird creatures
materialize in the impetuous brushstrokes - especially when the gaze is focused on
faces and eyes at the top of the image. Virtus Schade describes the years 1945-46
as 'The time of the Didaskas': "(...) Typical for the Didaska images in the large format
was that the strong colours gathered in the centre of the image around figures, one
or more, and that the background which limited them was billowing, coloured lines,
broad strokes that went all the way around the figures. They were not in the strictest
sense background, but an extra frame for the figures. The room had disappeared. 1946
also meant a return to the pattern. The image became a kaleidoscope of small, coloured
bits of painting in a larger, complete form (...) "(Virtus Schade:" Asger Jorn - A world
renown Danish artist", Copenhagen, 1965, p. 46).

Jørn Utzon’s Collection
Lot. no. 849-859
At this auction we present works from Jørn Utzon’s private art collection from his home in Hellebæk north of
Copenhagen. The collection reflects the world-famous Danish architect’s special eye for the greatest artists of
his time, including Le Corbusier, Georges Braque, Fernand Léger, Henri Laurens, Pablo Picasso and Asger Jorn.
Le Corbusier’s Tapestry
One of the collection’s highlights is a tapestry by Le Corbusier from 1960 entitled “Les dés sont jetés” (The dice
are cast). It was made while Utzon and Corbusier collaborated on the interior of the Sydney Opera House. In
a letter from 4 October 1960 the Utzon couple wrote a heartfelt greeting to Corbusier: ”For quite some time
we have intended to write to you again in order to tell you how extremely happy we are for your wonderful
tapestry. It is a daily source of delight and beauty not only for ourselves and our children but for all our friends
and guests, too. It has endowed our home with a beauty so exquisite that I am at a loss for the proper words
to describe our feelings about it. (…)
From Great French Artists to Asger Jorn
Utzon was greatly inspired by French art, and he purchased works by Georges Braque and Fernand Léger for
his private collection. Among the items up for auction you can also find a clay figure by Henri Laurens, which
the Utzon couple was given by the artist himself.
Pablo Picasso was also a source of great fascination for the Danish architect, and there are several Picasso-works in the collection, including graphic works and a beautiful ceramic pitcher, “Pichet gothique aux
oiseaux”, from 1953.
Utzon’s collection also contains Danish art. Asger Jorn, for instance, gave Utzon 16 lithographs from his
“Anniversary Series” (1963), because Utzon had designed an extension of the art museum in Silkeb­org, which
was to house the works of Jorn. All of the lithographs are up for auction.
The Architect Jørn Utzon
Jørn Utzon (1918-2008) graduated as an architect in 1942. His career gathered momentum, when he in 1957
won the international architectural competition for the Sydney Opera House. The next several years he worked
on the century’s most famous building, and everything went according to plan until the change of government
in Australia in 1965.
The opera house’s exterior was finished, and Jørn Utzon was about to begin work on the interior. He had
plans to decorate the opera with tapestries by Le Corbusier. But the new governing party in the Australian
parliament wanted the building finished quickly and cheaply. Therefore, they suspended the payments to Jørn
Utzon, who withdrew from the construction in 1966. Australian architects completed the construction, and
the Sydney Opera House was completed in 1973 without Utzon’s stamp on the interior design and the planned
decorations by Le Corbusier.
In 2003 Jørn Utzon received, as the first Dane, the Nobel Prize for architecture, the Pritzker Architec­ture
Prize. In the statement accompanying the award the president of the jury, Lord Rothschild, referen­ced Utzon’s
talent in general and the Sydney Opera House in particular. The building was included on the UNESCO World
Heritage list in 2007 - the year before Utzon died at the age of 90.

Léger realized "Cirque" in collaboration with the editor Tériade and his associate Marguerite
Lang, referring to the complicated editorial process required to produce this extensive work.
Printed by Mourlot Frères, Paris, October 5th, 1950 on Velin d'Arches. Contained in the original
paper wrappers with lithographs printed on the front and back, and in the beige paper-covered
boards and slipcase. Sheet size 42,2 x 32 cm.
"Cirque" is Léger's master graphic work. The text in the portfolio is Léger's own and his themes
are the circus and the countryside; from these touchstones of his inspiration Léger extracts the
principles of his art and life. There can be no doubt that "Cirque" stands as his testament.

"Conjunction XV". Stamped Chadwick 1970, 602, 4/6. Bronze. H. 138 cm.
Literature: Dennis Farr & Eva Chadwick: "Lynn Chadwick Sculptor. With a Complete Illustrated Catalogue
1947-1988", Oxford, 1990, no. 602.
Provenance: Court Gallery, Copenhagen.
Provenance: Private collection, Charlottenlund, Denmark. Acquired from the above. Lynn Chadwick visited
the present owner in connection with the acquisition and saw the sculpture's placement in their garden.
Likewise the present owner visited the artist at his workshop in Lypiatt Park, Gloucestershire, England.
In 1952, Lynn Chadwick along with seven other young sculptors, including Reg Butler, Bernard Meadows
and Eduardo Paolozzi, were selected to represent Britain at the Venice Biennale. Although they each only
exhibited few artworks, the international art world soon recognised that a new style of sculpture had
been born. Only four years after the exhibition, Lynn Chadwick received his first major accolade when in
1956 he received the Venice Biennale Sculptor’s Award in front of legends such as Alberto Giacometti.
Lynn Chadwick’s first sculptures were mobiles that were inspired by Alexander Calder’s famous metal
mobiles and which paid tribute to his own masterly craftsmanship. Through the 1960s, 1970s and right
up until the 1990s, Chadwick continued to innovate and develop his art, from the mobile to the ‘stabile’,
to establish an idiom that reflects the shapes of nature - with humans and animals taking centre stage.
Apart from the technical aspect of his work, Chadwick found it important to reflect the fundamentals
of life, such as representing animal images in various attack situations or in states of repression. In his
representation of human form, Chadwick explores the relationship between individuals, their movement,
interaction and sexuality.
This sculpture from 1970 entitled “Conjunction XV” shows the interaction between male and female: “This
more naturalistic treatment of parts of the female body appears in the early ‘Elektras’ and ‘Two Sitting
Figures’, where the breasts and abdomen are tenderly modelled, and sharply emphasize the femininity
of these figures when seen in consort with their male counterparts” (Farr & Chadwick p. 13). The title
“Conjunction XV” emphasises the interaction and synergy between the two figures that face each other
closely with their arms stretched out.

"Happiness", 1984. Signed RJ. Black painted wood. H. 203 cm. W. 182 cm. D. 180 cm.
1986 became a high point in Robert Jacobsen's Asian adventure with the unveiling of the monumental iron sculpture "Venskab" (Friendship) in the People's Republic of China, "I, who do not write,
I looked at the Chinese writing ... I saw them sculpturally," says Robert Jacobsen. From his studio
near Egtved the artist worked with Chinese calligraphy in his later career. The simple beauty of
the characters appealed to Jacobsen and resulted in a range of sculptural abstractions related to
China, whereof none, however, have the format to match the magnificent "Venskab".
The story begins many years earlier, all the way back to Egtved-pigen (the Egtved girl) and her
burial place in the undulating countryside around Vejle. Here Jacobsen constructs, in the years
1986-1991, a series of landscape sculptures in a dialogue with the area's history, materials and
the sun's movement across the sky. While the day moves from light towards darkness, and the year
moves from winter to summer, the appearance of the sculptures change.
"Happiness" from 1981 is a small wooden model of "Venskab". The sculpture gazes both ahead and
back into history, timeless yet subject to the present, as a primordial form preceding both Jacobsen's work with the nature of Jutland and the Chinese culture.
The sculpture exists in several different versions. A bronze version of the sculpture is situated in
Kongens Have, while the large iron sculpture has been resold to the Sammlung Würth, Künzelsau,
Germany.
Literature: Different versions of the figure are mentioned in Descargues: "Robert Jacobsen: Conversations 1971-1991" p. 132, and the Gothenburg Museum of Art: "Theme Chinois" cat. no. 2.

Peter Louis-Jensen
At this auction we can for the first time present two monumental works by Peter LouisJensen (1941-1999). The works of art are from the Ex-School period in the 1960s, where
Peter Louis-Jensen, together with artists such as Poul Gernes and Per Kirkeby, delivered a
radical new departure from the established modernism of the Danish art scene - or from
the modernist idea itself of the isolated, self-reliant work of art. In 1963 Peter Louis-Jensen
wrote to art historian Troels Andersen, who was also part of the Ex-School’s inner circle: “It
is not true that you can hang a good painting anywhere, and not risk the painting loosing
its own ‘inner power’ because of this placement. A painting, as any other thing, exists only
and because of the exterior forces acting upon it. A colour for instance, exists only because
of the colour that lies next to it.” Peter Louis-Jensen and the other artists of the Ex-School
wanted to move art, the materials of art and not least the experience of art to an understandable level for a wider public.
Art historian Christine Buhl Andersen points out, as she quotes the artist in a radio
interview from 1965 that Peter Louis-Jensen’s work from 1960-65 can be “(...) seen as one
long dismantling of the image as the closed unit with an ‘inner strength’ (...) A process of
destruction that more precisely resulted in a series of structural panels, violently perforated
with a drill and scorched by open fire. Why? Because the painter surely could ‘continue to
develop his structural challenges at home, and he could probably achieve much more in
terms of developing the abstract painting, but that is not relevant anymore, because it has
dried out in its use as avant-garde ... that which we have lost over the last 50 years in the
form of contact with a wider public. We have to win this back ... it is necessary if art is to
avoid isolation.’”(CB-A p. 11-12)

Rolf Læssøe (ed): ..."This beautiful painting is a central piece among the
paintings, which the painter calls his "doll images". Although the pain­
ting, at some level, ironically describes the characters' ridiculousness
and lacking ability to communicate among themselves, it also contains
other layers of great and tender beauty, not only in its colouristic harmonies, but also in the vulnerability that these doll-like figures seem to
possess. They are a kind of toy, placed on a tabletop as in a traditional
nature morte, but they have their own biological life as pupae with intrinsic potential for evolution and life. Their nature as animated objects
is emphasized here, as in many of the painter's images, as well as in his
later works, by the blue tones that endow them with an almost electric
luminous aura".

Niels Strøbek's artistic starting point came from his training with the spontaneous-abstract painter Egill Jacobsen. Yet the earliest paintings show a realism that
borders on the surreal. Strøbek has painted numerous portraits, which through
their objects describe the portrayed person, but he catches one's interest in particular in the works, where he blows up the naturalistic reality. He has painted
many still life paintings, which show his technical ability in the same way as can

be seen in the 1600s Dutch paintings. Lunch reproduces a plate with open-faced
sandwiches, an egg in an egg-cup with a matching spoon, knife, fork and a water
glass, all placed on a table. Here Strøbek uses different perspectives, for instance
the water glass and egg-cup are seen obliquely from the side, while the plate and
the cutlery are shown almost vertically from above. There is a cubic influence,
which has not been seen since in his work. Strøbek's later super realism is already
evident in this painting, for instance in the traces of the knife on the buttered
piece of bread. An example of Strøbek's early acquired technical skills includes
the five part work "The Closet", where the nature of the different materials, from
the texture of the dishcloths, the force of the potato sprouts, the dead hen's wax
pale smoothness, the slimy surface of the fish and the background's wood marbling stand out. Strøbek is most exciting in the work where a degree of ambiguity
can be perceived.

Signed v.b.-p. 39. Oil on canvas. 97 x 130 cm.
It is a painting with transparent figures as pioneered and used by the Belgian artist
René Magritte. The time for its execution is interesting, 1939, the year World War
II broke out. If one looks carefully at the painting there are elements in it showing
the fear many people had in 1939.
...Sigurd Schultz's review of the picture in 1943 does not mention threats, it
describes it as a family picture tending to be of a symbolic nature with references
back to the artists Johannes Holbek and Jens Ferdinand Willumsen. This is understandable considering the German occupation of Denmark at the time when the
picture was exhibited and the review was written. He does not point out either the
possible inspiration from triptych altar pieces featuring the Holy Family.

The sculpture is a striking example of Robert Jacobsen's earliest, rotatable sculptures. In 1955,
Jacobsen's colleague Victor Vasarely arranged an exhibition of kinetic (movable) art at Galerie
Denise René, which led to a discussion on movement in art between the two friends - and a clarification of Robert Jacobsen's position on the subject. Robert Jacobsen: "[...] I thought about the
idea of kinetism and found that it did not create a movement more interesting than that of a
watch, as it always ended up where it started (...). I said to Vasarely: for me, movement is the
shock you get when you see something. Otherwise it becomes a pendulum. It is just illusionism,
if a picture vibrates as you walk past it. I don't want illusions. I want a concrete feeling. Since we
have to have an expression which ends in 'ism', I call my idea 'ideo-motorism', the motorism that
comes from the shock of seeing the things. Vasarely replied: I can't exhibit something that doesn't
move. I replied: it moves more than you think". (Pierre Descargues: "Robert Jacobsen: Conversations 1947-1991", Copenhagen ,1996, p. 49).

Preliminary work for the monument placed in front of the Ny Carlsberg
Glyptotek on Dantes Plads in Copenhagen. On the occasion of the 600th
anniversary of his death, Italy's greatest poet Dante Alighieri (1265-1321)
had the square in front of the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek named after him. A
memorial column with a statue of Dante's beloved Beatrice was raised. The
ancient column in the finished monument is a gift from the city of Rome,
a bronze relief with the laurel-wreathed poet's portrait is created by Libero Andreotti and donated by the city of Florence. The monument's plinth is
made after a drawing by Gunnar Biilmann Petersen. The first stone was laid
on June 23, 1922 in the presence of Italian King Vittorio Emanuele and King
Christian X of Denmark, and the unveiling took place on August 23 august
1924. (Source: Copenhagen Municipality, www.kk.dk/monumenter)

b. Hammelev 1885, d. Frederiksberg 1940
Street scenery. Signed monogram; signed and on a note on the reverse Gerda Wegener,
Firenze 1910. Watercolour and pastel on paper. Visible size 27 x 24 cm.
Gerda Wegener’s strong stylistic skills are clearly expressed in this composition, in both the structure and the colour scheme, which is reminiscent of the French master Toulouse-Lautrec (18641901). At the same time the composition functions as a portrayal of the 19th-20th century urban
life in the metropolis: the decadent ladies pass by a group of men who throw thinly veiled glances
towards the beauties. Wegener portrays the condensed flâneur atmosphere and the erotic undertones with both a sharp and humorous empathy.
In 1907 Gerda Wegener won a sketching contest in the Danish newspaper Politiken. This marked
the beginning of her artistic career that led her to Paris and right into the middle of the 1920s
Art Deco environment. Soon she became a sought after illustrator of women's magazines, and
she also drew several posters. Her marriage with the painter Ejnar Wegener represents a unique
chapter in her life: They lived in an open relationship that allowed Gerda to live as a lesbian. Ejnar
received, as the first transgender person in the world, gender corrective surgery, which attracted
much attention. The unique story has just been made into a Hollywood film production entitled
"The Danish Girl", which will have its premiere in 2016.
The composition, which is up for auction, is an interesting early work from the couple's first trip
abroad, which took them through Italy to France.

Arthur Köpcke was a Danish/German artist and gallerist in Copenhagen. He
was affiliated with the groups Le Nouveau Réalisme and particularly the Fluxus
movement in the 1960s, where he remained one of the leading artists until his
death in 1977. His art was tachist. Later he painted rebus paintings and "reading
works", works, which were to involve the beholder. He also participated in a
number of important Fluxus happenings over the years.

The present landscape/seascape is one of few paintings known to be painted in Norway. It is clearly
influenced by his teacher Axel Revold, like another
painting, a harbour scene, also painted in Norway.
In 1930 he exhibited in Oslo together with Bjarne
Rise and Johannes Rian. In 1932, after his training
at Bauhaus, he exhibited again in Oslo at the Artist’s
Association (Kunstnerforbundet) together with Bjarne Rise and Karen Holtsmark.

The painting could be interpreted as frightened refugees fleeing from the war and Nazi ideology,
some still hoping to get away others without hope. The black background of the painting enhances
the dire circumstances of the refugees. The title of the painting is from the exhibition catalogue
from 1943; later it were just called Composition (Komposition).
The exhibition in August 1943 was the last exhibition he had during World War II. He fled to
Sweden in April 1944.

Lot 1633
BRASSAï / by night
The section of fine photography opens with a selection of notable photographs
by the influential Hungarian-French photographer Guyla Halasz (1899-1994),
better known as Brassaï.
Among the selection of photographs by Brassaï are a number of his iconic
images from nocturnal Paris in the early 1930s. Brassaï was infatuated with
Paris and used the camera to explore the city, when he started photographing in the late 1920s. Like many other Hungarian artists and intellectuals he
had moved to Paris in the mid 1920s. His friend, the renowned photographer
André Kertész, introduced him to photography and with the camera at hand
he began wandering the streets at night, visiting the dance halls, cafés, street
fairs and brothels. He got close to the prostitutes, customers, homosexuals and
criminals inhabiting these venues and won their confidence. In turn they gave
him permission to photograph their ‘secret’ life, work and leisure time in the
Parisian night.
One of the photographs presented is known from his first, influential and
groundbreaking work “Paris de Nuit” (catalogue number 1075) and others from
his ‘Secret Paris’ project (catalogue number 1076, 1077 and 1078) – a project
he had wanted to realize since “Paris de Nuit” in 1933. However his collection
of photographs of the secret nightlife of Paris were not published until 1976
in “The Secret Paris of the Thirties”. Where “Paris de Nuit” was a photographic
walk through the Parisian streets at night, “The Secret Paris of the Thirties”
revealed the Parisian night-life of the decade from within, focusing on its vast
variety of people and lifestyles, that thrived in the darkness of night.
The British Magnum photographer Martin Parr has noted in his history of
photobooks that “Brassaï’s nocturnal vision of Paris is so well known, and
his book Paris de Nuit (Paris by Night) has been so influential – the first in
a long line of noctambulations by photographers [...] one should think of it
as amongst the best produced and influential photobooks ever.” (Martin Parr,
2014. p. 134). Brassaï’s photographic vision and method have inspired a wide
range of photographers, e.g. Robert Doisneau, Diane Arbus and Weegee, whose
work is also presented at this auction.
Specialist in photography, Christine Almlund, will be giving a short talk about
Brassaï and the works presented on Friday 29 May at 3 pm at the preview in
Bredgade.

The photograph here presented is a rare variant copy of one of Brassaï's iconic photographs
published in his pioneering book "Paris de Nuit" from 1933 (photograph number 22). The
publisher of this important book kept the negatives of Brassaï's photographs after it was
printed and they were not found again until 1984, thus vintage prints of Brassaï's photographs from this work are extremely rare and almost only exist in variant copies, like this one.

The photograph here presented is from Brassaï's 'Paris intime' (Secret Paris) project which took
him more than 40 years to realise. It was taken at Bal de la Montagne Sainte-Geneviève in 1931:
"When the music wasn't playing, the place was like an ordinary popular dance hall, the customers
chatting and sipping varicolored drinks - pink, green, purple. But when the band launched into a
java, a waltz, however, the ambiguity knocked one over. On the floor were only couples of men or
couples of women... never a woman and a man [...] The high season at this dance hall occurred at
Mardi Gras and Mid-Lent. The hall would be packed with costumed customers, men dressed as
women, women dressed as men, jostling each other and fighting the crush on the tiny dance floor
until dawn." Brassaï, The Secret Paris of the Thirties, 1976, n.p.

The photograph here presented is a variant of one of

The cream of Parisian inverts was to meet there, without distinction as to class, race, or age. And every type

that contact with a Negro had once been schocking were irresistibly drawn to the Vth arrondissement, the
Harlem of Paris." Literature: Brassaï: The Secret Paris

BRASSAï / by day
Brassaï’s photographs of Paris in the 1930s broke new ground and made him world
famous almost instantaneously after the publication of his first nocturnal photographs. His friend the author Henry Miller named him “The Eye of Paris”. This
sympathetic eye for composition, place and not least people was sought after and
Brassaï became a highly respected commercial photographer working for several
of the pictorial magazines like VU, The Picture Post, Harpers Bazaar and others
that had become exceptionally popular all over Europe and in the US since the
mid-1920s.
On the next pages we present a selection of his day-time photographs from travels
to various regions of France in the 1930s and early 1940s. The photographs all
have a humanistic and positive atmosphere and as with his nocturnal photographs they were well prepared, focusing on the characteristics of the region or
city. In the photo sequences of the cocardieres in Provence, the pedalo pick-up on
Cote d’Azur as well as in the photographs of the glacier climbers and mountaineers in the Alps (catalogue number 1080 - 1083) Brassaï distinctly captures an
activity that is essential to each region’s culture or daily life – without superfluous
details, but with his characteristic, poetic eye for the situation.

paper negative. 28,4 x 22 cm.
This rare paper negative photograph by the French artist
and photography pioneer Louis-Rémy Robert of the governess of the Sèvres Porcelain Factory is from the earliest
years of photography. Robert grew up at the Royal Porcelain
Factory in Sèvres on the outskirts of Paris, where his father
was head of the glass painting atelier. A position he later
assumed himself. The village and it's countryside attracted
artist's who inspired each other including Robert, who began experimenting with paper print photography around
1850, around the time this paper negative is from. In 1852
the well known chemist and pioneering photographer,
Regnault, became director of the factory. The two men inspired each others work. His pioneering work concentrated
on portraits of friends and families, still lifes of the products
from the factory and landscape and architectural studies.

The American photographer and cinematographer Karl Struss is probably most known
for his work as camera man on many notable films, including Charles Chaplin’s “The
Great Dictator” and “Limelight”. But he was also a notable photographer and part of
the pictorialists group called Photo-Secession, founded by the avantgarde modernist
photographer Alfred Stieglitz, which sought to promote photography as a fine art.
Eight of his photographs were published in the April 1912 issue of “Camera Work”,
one of the most well respected avantgarde publications on photography, published
from 1903-1917 and edited by Steiglitz. Struss’s series “The Female Figure” was created in the same period and published in 1917.

The two photographs here presented are from The German-Polish photographer Germaine Krull's now very
sougth after work, the modernist photobook Métal
(1927) which introduced German 'New Objectivity'
(Neue Sachlichkeit) photography to France, sharply
emphasizing the abstract forms of industry. "She was
one of the first women photographers to create a new
type of technical product without spectacular imaging rhetoric." Misselbeck: Reinhold Misselbeck: 20th
Century Photography. Taschen 2012, p. 365.

"Compared to the classical, somewhat static studies of
Charles Sheeler or Albert Renger-Patzsch, Krull's views
of industrial structures in Holland and Paris - including that icon of modern engineering, the Eiffel Tower
- seem more fluid and poetic, much more 'modern', reproducing the jagged angles of New Vision photography and the fractured spaces of the futurists [...] Métal
is several steps ahead of her nude portfolio, and sealed
her international reputation as a leading modernist."

Robert Doisneau
The French “street” photographer Robert Doisneau is particularly famous for his
humanistic photographs of the life of the Parisian suburbs in the 1940s and 50s.
Like the slighly older photographer Brassaï he liked to record the night life, the
café routines as well as every day life on the streets. The photographs here presented show one of his favorite themes: local wedding receptions and processions
in the cafés and streets of Paris.

Weegee
The American photographer known as Weegee is regarded as the American counterpart to Brassaï.
His photographs of the nightlife, bars and crime scenes in the streets of New York in the 1930s and
1940s are today iconic. In the late 1940s he began working insistently with new developing techniques
and made a series of distortion photographs of notabilities made with a kaleidoscope in front of the
lens. These distortions include this sequence of Picasso - an interesting photographic experiment that
parallels Picasso’s own multi-facetted paintings.
“The results go far beyond fun-house mirror distortions. They demonstrate both the surface elasticity
and inner lives of images, showing them to be wildly polymorphus and bubbling with conflict emotions [...] for the most part his late work parlayed the visceral, somewhat nasty edge of his street work
into a suitable physical, rough-and-tumble darkroom technique. The images resonate with Surrealism,
animation, political cartooning and, most recently, photo appropriation. They give further expression
to the instinct for brutality and beauty, often in tandem, that made him famous in the first place.”
Roberta Smith: Art in Review; Weegee. New York Times, 7 July 2000.
Photographs from Weegee’s “Picaso-Monster” series are also in the collections of International
Center of Photography, New York and Indianapolis Museum of Art, Indiana.

print, estate stamped, titled, dated printed by Neil Selkirk,

size 22 x 14,5 cm.
The notable American photographer Diane Arbus shot a series
of photographs of transvestites from the late 1950s and early
1960s. This photograph was taken at Club 82, a "female-impersonator's club" in Lower Manhattan in 1961. Arbus was
excellent at gaining the trust and getting access to the intimate spheres of the people she wanted to photograph. "I really
believe there are things which nobody would see unless I photographed them," she said. Diane Arbus: Aperture Monograph.
2011-2012, p. 15.
This resulted in a very direct and often unsettling honest expression in her work, revealing the 'unseen' sides of the people
in front of her camera. It is also this 'unseen' gap between the
intention and effect we as human beings have on others - the
idea of self - that gives her work a unique edge.
Critics have called her the photographer of freaks, but her
photographs of twin girls, upper class ladies and middle class
couples in lawn chairs as well as giants, midgets, transvestites
and nudists reveal - regardless of background and appearance
- the flaws in all of us. Arbus is today regarded as the most
influential female photographer of the 20th century.
A copy of this photograph was part of MoMA's exhibition
"Recent Aquisitions" in New York in 1965 as one of three works
by Arbus. It is also in the joint collection of Tate Museum,
London/The National Galleries of Scotland, Edinburgh.

The American photographer Roger Ballen is famous for
his depiction of people on the edge of society, especially
in South Africa where he has lived most of his life. He was
early on inspired by the documentary style of the Magnum
photographers, but through the years he has developed his
own style trying to get closer to his objects than a traditional documentary photographer, giving his work a more
disturbed even surreal or absurd expressiveness.

KØBSKONDITIONER
§ 1. BUDGIVNING
Køber er den byder, der får hammerslag. Den, der byder for andre,
hæfter som selvskyldnerkautionist for berigtigelsen af købet.
På opfordring fra Bruun Rasmussen Kunstauktioner (herefter
benævnt Bruun Rasmussen), skal alle bydere, hvadenten de
ønsker at afgive et bud ved personligt fremmøde på auktionsstedet eller afgive en kommission pr. brev, fax eller hjemmeside
eller byde direkte pr. telefon eller hjemmeside, kunne dokumentere deres betalingsdygtighed samt til enhver tid identificere sig.
Bruun Rasmussen er altid berettiget til at nægte at acceptere et
bud, hvis på forlangende ikke tilstrækkelig sikkerhed er stillet
eller en passende à conto betaling har fundet sted.
Bud afgives af byderen ved personligt fremmøde på auktionsstedet eller ved skriftlig kommission enten pr. brev, fax
eller hjemmeside. På online-auktioner afgives bud direkte fra
hjemmesiden. Afgivelse af bud pr. telefon er muligt under visse
forudsætninger, der afgøres af Bruun Rasmussen. Bruun Rasmussen påtager sig intet ansvar for eventuelle fejl eller fejltagelser, der måtte opstå ved brug af denne service. Auktionarius
bestemmer overbuddets størrelse og træffer ligeledes afgørelse i
alle tvivlstilfælde om budgivningen.
For at kunne byde på Bruun Rasmussens auktioner kræves forudgående registrering af byders betalingskort-/kreditkortoplysninger.
på auktion hos Bruun Rasmussen uden at være bundet af en af
den misligholdende køber fastsat mindstepris. Den misligholdende køber er ikke berettiget til at kræve udlevering af effekter
indleveret til salg, så længe forfalden gæld til Bruun Rasmussen
ikke er betalt, uanset om værdien af sådanne effekter må anses
at overstige forfalden gæld.
Bruun Rasmussen er berettiget til at afvise bud afgivet af en
køber, der er i misligholdelse med sine betalingsforpligtelser over
for Bruun Rasmussen eller et bud afgivet af en anden på den
pågældendes vegne, ligesom Bruun Rasmussen er berettiget til at
kræve et depositum som betingelse for accept af fremtidige bud.
§ 3. FORTRYDELSESRET
For privatkøb af emner på en online-auktion gælder loven om
fjernsalg, herunder også 14 dages fortrydelsesret. Eventuelle
omkostninger forbundet med transport af købte emner retur fra
køber, betales af køber selv.
Såfremt køber benytter sig af sin fortrydelsesret, refunderer
Bruun Rasmussen betalingen umiddelbart efter, at varen er sendt
retur og modtaget af Bruun Rasmussen. Bruun Rasmussen gør
opmærksom på, at det herefter er op til bankerne/kreditkortselskaberne, hvornår refusionen indgår på købers konto.
§ 2. BETALING
§ 4. AFGIFTSFRITAGELSE
Ved køb på alle net-auktioner tillægges hammerslagsprisen 25%,
der dækker salær på 20% samt moms af salæret.
Ved køb på alle traditionelle auktioner tillægges hammerslagsprisen 30% (for vin, mønter og frimærker 25%), der dækker
salær på 24% samt moms af salæret.
Visse numre handles efter særlige regler til fuldmoms, så udover
auktionsomkostninger på 24% (for net-auktioner, vin, mønter og
frimærker dog 20%), beregnes moms på 25% af både hammerslag
og auktionsomkostninger. Disse numre er mærket med en stjerne (*).
Danske momsregistrerede købere skal overfor Bruun Rasmussen
oplyse deres SE-/CVR-nr. (moms-nr.), da dette skal anføres på de
fakturaer, hvor varen købes i fuld moms.
For visse udenlandske købere gælder der særlige regler for
afgiftsfritagelse jvf. § 4. Afgiftsfritagelse omfatter ikke EU private købere, som ligestilles med danske købere jvf. gældende
dansk lovgivning om handel med brugte varer, kunstgenstande,
samlerobjekter og antikviteter.
Købesummen forfalder til betaling ved tilslaget. Der kan betales
kontant op til DKK 50.000 eller med Dankort, banknoteret
check, rejsechecks, Visa-, Master-, Diners Club- eller Eurocard. Personlige udenlandske checks kan kun anvendes efter
forudgående aftale.
På de traditionelle auktioner i Bredgade skal betaling af købte
emner finde sted under eller umiddelbart efter auktionen og
under alle omstændigheder senest 8 dage efter fakturadatoen.
På net-auktionerne trækkes købesummen automatisk på det af
kunden oplyste betalings-/kreditkort i forbindelse med, at det
købte emne udtages til transport (ca. 12 timer efter dagens salg).
Samtidig tilsendes køber faktura og transportoplysninger.
Betales købesummen ikke rettidigt, skal der svares rente heraf
med 1,5% pr. påbegyndt måned.
Betales købesum og renter ikke inden 8 dage efter at Bruun Rasmussen har afsendt påkrav herom til køber, er Bruun Rasmussen berettiget til at annullere købet og bortsælge det købte på
ny auktion hos Bruun Rasmussen eller underhånden og afkræve
køber ethvert herved opstået tab. Et eventuelt overskud tilfalder
den, der har indleveret det købte til auktion.
Har den misligholdende køber tilgodehavender fra salg af effekter hos Bruun Rasmussen, er Bruun Rasmussen berettiget til at
berigtige ethvert tilgodehavende hos køber ved modregning.
Har den misligholdende køber indleveret andre effekter til salg,
er Bruun Rasmussen berettiget til at bortsælge sådanne effekter
Udenlandske købere, der opfylder nedennævnte betingelser, betaler
henholdsvis 24% i auktionsomkostninger af hammerslaget på traditional auktion og 20% i auktionsomkostninger af hammerslaget på
net-auktion, og bliver ikke belastet af danske afgifter.
A. Købere med bopæl i et andet EU-land:
Købere, som er momsregistreret i et andet EU-land, fritages
for at betale dansk moms, når momsregistreringen dokumenteres over for Bruun Rasmussen, som skal påføre momsnummeret på fakturaen.
B. Købere med bopæl uden for EU:
1. Forsendelse gennem speditør:
Effekter, der eksporteres gennem en af Bruun Rasmussen
godkendt speditør, fritages for afgift.
2. Udførsel som rejsegods:
Der kan ske fritagelse for dansk afgift, når køberen selv
medtager det købte under forudsætning af, at følgende
betingelser er opfyldt:
Fakturaen skal være betalt, og den danske afgift på 25% af
fakturabeløbet skal være deponeret hos Bruun Rasmussen.
a. Købere med fast bopæl i Norge vil få den danske moms refunderet, så snart Bruun Rasmussen har modtaget købsfakturaen
retur med påtegning om officiel indførsel fra det endelige
lands toldmyndighed eller anden på omsætnings-afgiftsområdet kompetent myndighed, hvis købet overstiger DKK 1.200.
b. Købere med fast bopæl andre steder uden for EU vil få den
danske moms refunderet, efter at effekterne har været forevist til toldbehandling i forbindelse med køberens udrejse fra
EU. Eksportørblanketten returneres til Bruun Rasmussen efter
at være forsynet med et toldvæsens attest for udførslen, hvis
købet overstiger DKK 300. Dette gælder også for Færøerne og
Grønland.
314
§ 5. AFGIFTSBETALING
A. Momsregistrerede i andre EU-lande, der ikke ønsker at gøre
brug af § 4, kan i stedet vælge at handle til brugtmoms/fuldmoms på lige fod med private købere. Dette skal meddeles
Bruun Rasmussen inden kl. 10 den følgende auktionsdag.
B. Momsregistrerede i Danmark kan vælge at købe til fuldmoms
med 25% af både hammerslag og auktionsomkostninger.
Dette skal meddeles inden kl. 10 den følgende auktionsdag.
BRUUN RASMUSSEN BREDGADE AUCTION 857
§ 6. UDLEVERING
Købesummen skal være betalt, inden det købte kan udleveres til
køberen. Det købte henligger fra hammerslaget for købers regning og risiko. For varer, der ikke afhentes ifølge aftale efter hammerslaget, vil blive kørt på fjernlager på købers regning og risiko.
Købte varer, der er betalt, men ikke afhentet, vil efter 1 år blive
videresolgt for købers regning ved auktion eller underhånden.
§ 7. FORSENDELSE
Såfremt Bruun Rasmussen påtager sig at emballere og fremsende
købte varer, sker dette på købers regning og risiko. Bruun Rasmussen kan således ikke drages til ansvar for skader forvoldt på
købte varer under forsendelse eller for forsvundne forsendelser.
§ 8. KUNSTNERAFGIFT TIL COPY-DA N
CD
Ifølge gældende dansk lovgivning om ophavsret skal der opkræves
følgeretsvederlag for værker af nyere danske og visse udenlandske kunstnere, som enten er nulevende eller ikke har været døde
i mere end 70 år. Følgeretsvederlaget opkræves af Bruun Rasmussen på vegne af kunstnernes organisation Copydan. Disse værker
er mærket (CD) for Copydan ud for katalognummeret.
Den såkaldte Copydan-afgift tillægges hammerslagsprisen inkl.
salær, når beløbet overstiger €300.
Copydan-afgiften er:
• 5% af den del af hammerslagsprisen og salæret (ekskl.
moms), der udgør indtil €50.000.
• 3% af den del af hammerslagsprisen og salæret (ekskl.
moms), der ligger mellem €50.000 og €200.000.
• 1% af den del af hammerslagsprisen og salæret (ekskl.
moms), der ligger mellem €200.000 og €350.000.
• 0,5% af den del af hammerslagsslagsprisen (ekskl. moms), der
ligger mellem €350.000 og €500.000.
• 0,25% af den del af hammerslagsprisen (ekskl. moms), der
ligger over €500.000.
Copydan-afgiften kan ikke overstige €12.500 for det enkelte
kunstværk.
Euro-kursen er fastsat af Copydan i 2015 til kurs 744,01 pr. €100.
Såfremt det må erkendes, at det købte er en forfalskning, eller
såfremt beskrivelsen har været behæftet med væsentlige fejl, der
har medført en væsentlig højere hammerslagspris, end en korrekt
beskrivelse må antages at ville have resulteret i, er køber berettiget til at annullere købet, hvorefter den samlede erlagte købesum tillagt auktionsomkostninger og evt. moms, vil blive refunderet køber.
Væsentlige fejl i beskrivelsen relateret til mål eller vægt erstattes
kun procentuelt i forhold til differencen.
Retten til under de her anførte betingelser at annullere et køb
kan kun udøves af den, der købte den pågældende effekt hos
Bruun Rasmussen og er betinget af, at krav om annullering
fremsættes skriftligt over for Bruun Rasmussen inden 2 år efter
købsdagen, og af at det købte inden samme frist returneres til
Bruun Rasmussen i den samme stand i enhver henseende, som
det købte var i på hammerslagstidspunktet.
Køber kan i tilfælde af annullering ikke gøre krav på betaling
af renter af købesummen og er ej heller berettiget til at kræve
anden udgift eller tab, herunder eventuel mistet videresalgsfortjeneste, dækket.
Et køb kan ikke kræves annulleret efter ovenstående bestemmelser, såfremt:
a. beskrivelsen i katalog eller på hjemmesiden på hammerslagsdagen var i overensstemmelse med den på dette tidspunkt
gældende opfattelse blandt lærde og eksperter.
b. den eneste måde til på salgstidspunktet at få fastslået et
falskneri var iværksættelsen af videnskabelige processer, hvis
gyldighed først blev anerkendt efter salgstidspunktet, eller som
ville have været uforholdsmæssigt omkostningskrævende eller
uigennemførlige uden beskadigelse af den pågældende effekt.
I tillæg til ovenstående frist gælder de almindelige forældelsesregler i forældelsesloven, efter hvilke køber ikke under nogen
omstændigheder kan gøre noget krav gældende over for Bruun
Rasmussen, når der er forløbet mere end 5 år fra købsdagen.

Jørgen Byriel, Auktionsleder
§ 9. EKSPORTTILLADELSE
Kulturværdiudvalget er blevet ansøgt om eksporttilladelse, hvor
dette kræves iflg. gældende dansk lovgivning om sikring af kulturværdier i Danmark. Foreligger en sådan ikke, vil dette blive
meddelt den udenlandske køber umiddelbart efter hammerslaget.
Derefter vil Bruun Rasmussen igen ansøge Kulturværdiudvalget på
købers vegne, nu hvor prisen kendes. Gives eksporttilladelse ikke,
er Kulturværdiudvalget forpligtet til at overtage det købte til den
opnåede pris, hvilket betyder at købet bliver hævet for køber.
§ 10. BESKRIVELSE AF EMNER
Alt sælges i den stand, hvori det ved hammerslaget er at forefinde og som beskrevet i katalog eller hjemmeside med senere
offentliggjorte ændringer og modifikationer.
Beskrivelsen er foretaget efter bedste overbevisning og under
anvendelse af de anførte katalogiseringsprincipper.
De solgte effekter er ofte af en alder eller af en art, der bevirker,
at de kan være behæftet med fejl, mangler, restaurering eller
beskadigelser, der ikke nødvendigvis angives i katalog eller på
hjemmesiden. Afbildninger i katalog eller på hjemmesiden er
blot til identifikation og kan ikke anvendes til vurdering af
effekternes stand.
Enhver der ønsker at byde på auktion, bør derfor ved selvsyn på
de før auktionen afholdte eftersyn forvisse sig om de ønskede
effekters stand.
Beskrivelsen er udtryk for den på salgstidspunktet blandt lærde
og eksperter herskende opfattelse.
Skulle der efter købet opstå tvivl om det købtes ægthed eller
dettes overensstemmelse med beskrivelsen, skal dette straks meddeles til Bruun Rasmussen.
BRUUN RASMUSSEN BREDGADE AUCTION 857
KOMMISSIONER
Bruun Rasmussen påtager sig at byde i kommission for bydere,
der ikke kan være til stede ved auktionen. Det er en forudsætning, at kommissioner indleveret pr. brev eller fax er Bruun Rasmussen i hænde i 24 timer før auktionens start, så om nødvendigt bydernes kreditværdighed kan undersøges. Via hjemmesiden
er denne deadline 3 timer. Bruun Rasmussen påtager sig intet
ansvar for eventuelle fejltagelser, der måtte opstå ved brug af
denne service
KONDITIONSRAPPORTER
Bruun Rasmussen påtager sig, hvis det er muligt, at orientere
nærmere om numrenes kondition og tilstand. Dette er ment som
en service for kunder, der ikke selv har mulighed for ved selvsyn
at undersøge numrene på eftersynet. Det understreges, at de
givne oplysninger ikke kan gøres til genstand for reklamationer;
her henvises til beskrivelsen.
FRITAGELSE FOR DANSK FULDMOMS
Købere skal ifølge § 2 betale fuldmoms af de varer der i katalog
eller på hjemmesiden er markeret med stjerne (*).
Når virksomheder, der er momsregistrerede i andre EU-lande,
køber hos Bruun Rasmussen og videresælger til private, skal der
ikke betales dansk moms, men moms i henhold til de regler der
gælder, hvor den udenlandske virksomhed er momsregistreret.
Det tilrådes at søge oplysning hos de lokale myndigheder.

which covers 24% buyer’s premium plus VAT of the premium.

such in the catalogue and on the homepage with an asterisk (*).

with documentation of their SE-/CVR -number (VAT No.) as this

the date of the invoice. With online auctions, payment automatically takes place when the items are prepared for dispatch (circa
12 hours after the purchase has been made) using the credit/
debit card details submitted by the purchaser. At the same time
an invoice and dispatch information will be sent to the purchaser.
Should the purchase price not be paid by the due date, interest
at 1.5 % per new month will be charged.
If the purchase price and interest are not paid within eight
days after Bruun Rasmussen has sent its demand to the buyer,
Bruun Rasmussen shall be entitled to rescind the sale and resell
the goods at a Bruun Rasmussen auction or privately, and to
demand reimbursement of any related losses from the defaulting
buyer. Any further profit on the sale shall be payable to the person who had deposited the goods for sale by auction.
If the defaulting buyer is entitled to proceeds from a sale of goods
by Bruun Rasmussen, Bruun Rasmussen shall be entitled to set off
its receivables against its payables to the defaulting buyer.
316
If the defaulting buyer has deposited other goods for sale, Bruun
Rasmussen shall be entitled to sell such goods at a Bruun
Rasmussen auction without being bound by the reserve stipulated by the defaulting buyer. The defautling buyer shall not be
entitled to demand the surrender of goods deposited for sale as
long as the debt payable to Bruun Rasmussen has not been discharged, regardless of whether the value of such goods may be
deemed to exceed the debt payable.
Bruun Rasmussen shall be entitled to refuse a bid made by a
buyer who is in default in respect to his payment obligations
to Bruun Rasmussen, as well as a bid made by a third party on
behalf of such a defaulting buyer. Bruun Rasmussen shall further
be entitled to demand a deposit as a condition of accepting any
future bids from such a purchaserr.
§ 3. MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE
Online purchase of items by private individuals is subject to Danish
consumer law, which extends 14 days of money-back guarantee.
The purchaser is liable for any costs related to the transport of
returned items.

receiving the returned items. Please note that the date on which
accounts are debited is subject to the policy of the purchaser’s
bank/credit card company.

online. They are exempt from the payment of Danish VAT.:

forwarding agent approved by Bruun Rasmussen are exempt
from VAT.

25% of the invoice amount must have been deposited with
Bruun Rasmussen.

over matters of purchase tax with respect to official imports
of goods into the country in question if the purchase price
exceeds DKK 1,200.

refunded the Danish VAT after the goods have been presented
for customs clearance in connection with the departure of the
buyer from the EU. The exporter’s form should be returned

BRUUN RASMUSSEN BREDGADE AUCTION 857
§ 6. COLLECTION OF PURCHASES

can be passed over to the buyer. From the time of the lot being
knocked down to the buyer, until its collection, the purchased lot
will be held at the buyer’s own expense and risk.
A storage fee will be charged for lots which have not been collected
according to agreement. Lots which have been paid for but not collected will be storaged at buyers expense. Lots not collected within
1 year will be resold at auction or privately at the buyer’s expense.
§ 7. DISPATCH
Should Bruun Rasmussen undertake the packaging and forwarding of purchased goods, this shall be done at the buyer’s own
expense and risk. Bruun Rasmussen shall thus not be held liable
neither for any damage caused to purchased goods during dispatch nor for any missing consignments.
§ 8. DROIT DE SUITE
In accordance with Danish copyright law, an additional royalty fee
is to be paid for the purchase of works by contemporary Danish artist and some international artists who are either still alive or who
have been dead for less than 70 years. The additional royalty fee will
be collected by Bruun Rasmussen on behalf of Copydan, which is a
Danish-based joint collecting society. Such works are marked with
(CD) for Copydan next to the lot number.
The Copydan royalty fee is added to the auction price including the
buyer’s premium when the total exceeds €300.
Copydan royalty fees:
• 5% of the auction price and buyer’s premium (excluding VAT)
totalling up to €50,000.
• 3% of the auction price and buyer’s premium (excluding VAT)
of totals between €50,000 and €200,000.
• 1% of the auction price and buyer’s premium (excluding VAT)
of totals between €200,000 and €350,000.

744,01 per €100.
arise after the purchase regarding the genuineness of the purchased lot or its conformance with the description, Bruun Rasmussen should immediately be informed thereof.
Should the purchased lot be proved to be a forgery, or if the
description contains material errors which lead to a considerably
higher hammer price than that which a correct description would
presumably result in, the buyer shall be entitled to cancel the purchase, after which the buyer shall be reimbursed for the total purchase price paid plus buyer’s premium and VAT, when applicable.
For material errors in the description in respect to measurements
or weight, compensation shall only be paid on a percentage
basis in proportion to the difference.
The right of cancellation of a purchase in pursuance of the
present conditions can only be exercised by the party who has
bought the lot in question at Bruun Rasmussen and shall be
subject to the presentation of a claim for cancellation in writing to Bruun Rasmussen within 2 years of the purchase date and
to the purchased lot being returned to Bruun Rasmussen in the
same condition in any and all respects which the purchased lot
was in at the time of the lot being knocked down to the buyer.
In the event of cancellation the buyer shall not be entitled to
claim payment of interest on the purchase price nor shall the
buyer be entitled to claim compensation for any other expenses
or loss incurred, including any possible loss of profit in connection with reselling.
It shall not be possible to state cancellation of a purchase in
pursuance of the above provisions if:
a the description on the day the lot was knocked down to the
buyer was in accordance with the then generally accepted
opinion of scholars and experts;
b the only way of establishing whether the lot was a forgery at
the time of the sale was the implementation of scientific processes, the validity of which was only acknowledged after the
time of the sale, or which would have required a disproportionate amount of cost, or which would have been impossible to carry out without damaging the lot in question.
In addition to the time-limits stated above, all purchases are
subject to the Statute of Limitations stipulated by danish law by
which Bruun Rasmussen is under no circumstance liable for purchases after 5 years from the date of purchase.

§ 9. EXPORT LICENCE
COMMISSION
Applications for an export licence must be made to the Danish Cultural Assets Committee when required in accordance with
current Danish legislation on the protection and preservation of
cultural assets in Denmark. Where such a licence has not been
obtained, the foreign buyer will be informed thereof immediately after the lot has been knocked down to the buyer. Another application will subsequently be sent to the Danish Cultural
Assets Committee by Bruun Rasmussen on behalf of the buyer,
now that the price is known. Should an export licence not be
granted, the Danish Cultural Assets Committee would be obliged
to acquire the purchased lot at the purchase price, and the buyer
would thus not be bound to the purchase.
Bruun Rasmussen undertakes to execute commission bids for
bidders who are unable to be present at the auction. It is a prerequisite that Bruun Rasmussen receives the commissions by letter, fax or telephone 24 hours before the start of the auction for
the bidders’ credit to be checked, if necessary. Bids by the homepage are to be recieved a minimum of 3 hours before the start of
the auction. Bruun Rasmussen is not to be held responsible for
any errors that may occur using this service.
§ 10. DESCRIPTION OF LOTS
All lots are sold in the condition in which they are found when
knocked down and as described in the catalogue and on the
homepage with subsequently published changes and modifications. Description is done according to the best of Bruun Rasmussen’s knowledge and on the cataloguing principles stated.
The lots auctioned are often of some age or of a kind which
makes it possible that they may contain defects, deficiencies, or
may have been subject to restoration or damage not necessarily
stated in the catalogue and on the homepage. Pictures are for
identification only and cannot be used for an evaluation of the
condition of the goods.
Any person who wishes to bid at an auction should therefore satisfy himself of the condition of the lots for which he intends to
bid by personal inspection at the preview held prior to the auction. The description is an indication of the prevailing opinion of
scholars and expert at the time of the sale. If any doubts should

CONDITION REPORTS
Bruun Rasmussen undertakes to provide further information
about the state and condition of the lots if possible. This is
regarded as a service for customers who are unable to make a
personal inspection of the lots at the preview. Bruun Rasmussen
stresses that the information given cannot be used as the basis
for complaints; complaints can only be based on the description.
EXEMPTION FROM VAT
Buyers shall, according to § 2, pay full VAT on lots marked with
an asterisk (*).
No Danish VAT is to be paid when VAT registered companies
from other EU countries buy at Bruun Rasmussen and resell
to private buyers, The private buyer then only has to pay VAT
according to the rules in force in the country where the foreign
company is VAT registered. For further information please consult your local authorities.
The above is an English translation of the Danish version of the
Conditions of Purchase. In case of dispute, only the Danish version
of the present Conditions of Purchase of Bruun Rasmussen is valid.

KOMMISSIONSBUD
COMMISSION BIDS
Det er muligt at afgive kommissionsbud, hvis De ikke selv kan
være til stede på auk­tions­­dagen. Denne service er gratis.
It is possible to leave commission bids if you can not be pre­sent
at the auction yourself. This service is free of charge.
Når De afgiver en kommission, beder De vores kundeservice på
Deres vegne byde op til et af Dem bestemt beløb i hammerslag.
When leaving a commission bid, you are instructing our customer service to bid up to a specified amount on your behalf.
Der kan opstå den situation, at en anden køber allerede har budt
det beløb, som De ønsker at afgive. Er De da villig til at gå et
bud højere eller er De indforstået med at nummeret sælges til
anden side?
The situation can occur that another buyer has already bid the
same as you were prepared to. Are you then willing to bid further? If not the lot will be sold to another buyer.
Ønsker De ikke at byde højere så skriv “Max” ud for beløbet. Er
De i tvivl om hvor højt De vil byde, kan De hæve budet med op
til ca. 15% eller ca. 25%.
Salgsprisen kan blive højere eller lavere end vurderingen, så der
er også mulighed for at købe til under den angivne vurdering.
Vor kun­deservice køber altid så billigt som muligt til Dem, som
havde De selv været tilstede på auktionen.
Alle kommissioner behandles strengt fortroligt.
Kommisionsbud skal være Bruun Rasmussen i hænde senest 24
timer før auktionens start.
If you do not wish to exceed your bid then write “Max”, for
maxi­mum, next to the amount. You can also allow us to raise
your bid by approx. 15% or approx. 25%.
The hammer price may be higher or lower than the estima­ted
price, so it is possible to buy below the estimate. Bruun Rasmussen will always buy at the lowest price possible, as if you yourself had been present at the auction.
All commission bids are strictly confidential.
Commission bids must be submitted no later than 24 hours prior
to the start of the auction.

STANDARD AUKTIONSOMKOSTNINGER
BUYER’S STANDARD PREMIUM
30% - BRUGT MOMS
30% AUCTIONEERS’ MARGIN SCHEME
1. januar 1995 trådte nye love i kraft i EU vedrørende
moms ved handel på auktion med brugte varer, kunst­
genstande, samler­objekter og antikviteter, der nu kan
handles til brugt moms.
As of 1 January 1995 new EC regulations came into
effect regarding the sale of secondhand goods, works of
art, collector’s items and antiques; these items may now
be traded under the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme.
Efter de nye regler er det kun auktionsomkostninger, der
skal tillægges moms, og ikke som tidligere varens fulde
pris. I auk­tionsomkostninger er indregnet ikke fradragsberettiget moms.
Under the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme the premium
only is subject to VAT, i.e. the hammer price is exempted
from VAT. The buyer’s premium of 25% will thus henceforth include non-refundable VAT.
FULD MOMS *

1. Danish VAT registered buyers may choose to pay

2. Momsregistrerede købere i andre EU-lande kan, ved at
anvende deres EU-momsnr., undgå den danske moms
og derved betale 24% i auktionsomkostninger.
2. VAT registered buyers in other EU countries may
avoid Danish VAT by using their VAT registration
number and thereby pay a buyer’s premium of 24%
only.
3. Alle købere med bopæl i et land uden for EU, der

EURO
EURO
Der bydes og faktureres i danske kroner.
Bids and invoicing are made in DKK.
Ved omregning fra DKK til Euro er anvendt
Nationalbankens officielle valutakurs på
tids­punktet for udarbejdelse af kataloget.
For the conversion from DKK into Euro,
Bruun Rasmussen has used the official rate
of exchange from Denmarks Nationalbank
(the Danish National Bank) at the time of
preparation of the catalogue.
Beløbet i Euro er afrundet til et tal, der
efter Bruun Rasmussens skøn fremtræder
på en præsentabel måde i forhold til
beløbet i DKK.
BEVARINGSTILSTAND
Bruun Rasmussen henleder opmærksom­
heden på, at katalognumrene som
udgangs­punkt ikke er forsynet med oplysninger om tilstand (jvf. købskonditionernes § 10). Vi henviser imidlertid til vores
hjemmeside: www.bruun-rasmussen.dk,
hvor der under det enkelte katalognummer
ofte er oplysninger om bevarings­tilstand,
reparationer o. lign. Er disse oplysninger
ikke tilstrække­lige kan én af afdelingens
sagkyndige kontaktes for yderligere informationer.

The amount in Euro is, in Bruun Rasmussen's judgment, roughly adjusted to
presentable figures.
CONDITION
Bruun Rasmussen draws attention to the
fact that, as a rule, no information is
provided regarding the condition of the lots
(cf. conditions of purchase § 10).
However, we refer to our website:
www.bruun-rasmussen.dk where infor­
mation regarding condition, repairs, etc.
can usually be found for the individual lot.
Should this information be insufficient,
further details can be obtained by contacting one of the experts of the department.

CONFERENCE AND MEETING CENTRE
This unique property consists of three adjacent villas which have formed a successful meeting, training and
conference centre for some years now. Set in the heart of the Var, in magnificent Provencal countryside, the
quality accommodation provides a wide range of high class conference, meeting and leisure facilities. Two large
swimming pools; a tennis court; a petanque court, full 18 hole mini-golf course; gym, massage room; and a
room containing Jacuzzi, sauna and a hydrotherapy pool, and a unique pool house with a full outdoor kitchen
(including a wood fired pizza oven) all help to provide the ideal environment for creative thinking, as a meeting
place for demanding client, or has the potential to be developed into a boutique spa and wellness hotel. This
property will make a remarkable acquisition for any company looking to invest in its personnel by getting them
out of their daily routine, an organisation looking to develop a world class conference and meeting business or
a hotel entrepreneur focusing on spa and holistic wellness therapies. Set in its own sculpture park in one of the
most beautiful areas of Provence, the sky really is the limit. Two more nearby properties offering a further 11
bedrooms would be available by separate negotiation if required, as is the neighbouring plot of land with planning permission to erect a new dwelling of 250 sq. m. and offering an additional 1.6 acres of land.
