扣人心弦：赫格维希珍藏第二部分

拍卖简介

The second instalment of Spellbound: The Hegewisch Collection offers further insights into the complex, subtle mind of the collector Klaus Hegewisch. It is an enchanting, at times disconcerting, vision of the world as seen through the eyes of the artists he loved. The sale includes 500 years of European graphic arts, from Albrecht Dürer to David Hockney, via prints and drawings by Tiepolo, Carracci, Francisco de Goya, Menzel, Daumier, Bresdin, Klinger, Ensor, Degas, Cezanne, Kollwitz, Edvard Munch, Schiele, Grosz, Dix, Henri Matisse, Schlemmer, Giacometti and, of course, Pablo Picasso.

International Specialist | Prints & Multiples

Tim Schmelcher joined Christie's Prints Department in London in 2004 and specializes in Old Master and German Expressionist prints. In his role as International Specialist, Tim oversees Christie’s auctions of Old Master Prints in London, New York and online, which have included the landmark sales Albrecht Dürer – Masterpieces from a Private Collection (New York, January 2013) and Goya – Graphic Masterpieces from a Private Collection (New York, January 2014) and Fifty Prints by Rembrandt van Rijn – A Private English Collection (London, July 2016). With these and many successful various-owner sales since 2007, Tim has helped Christie’s achieve countless record prices for Dürer, Rembrandt, Goya and many other printmakers of the 15th to the 19th century, including the highest price for an old master print at auction: Rembrandt’s Christ presented to the People (‘Ecce Homo’) was sold for GBP 2,65 million in London in 2018.

Other successes include the sale of Edvard Munch’s Young Woman on the Beach for £2,130,000 (London, in March 2013) and some very significant private sales of Modern and Old Master Prints. In April 2018, Tim curated the exhibition Beauties & Beasts – Making and Collecting Art in Germany for Christie’s in Berlin.
