Pre Auction Report ‘Murano Glass’ on March 26, 2025

We are delighted to be able to present a wonderful cross-section of important Murano glass designs. Dino Martens’ large ‘Oriente’ vase, designed in 1952, is a firework of colors with a large star murrine (estimated price € 8,000 – 10,000). Among the approximately 160 glass objects, there are some rarities that document the history of Murano glass art at the beginning of the 20th century. Around 1900, interest in glass from Murano had almost completely disappeared from the international market. It is thanks to two visionary entrepreneurs that this wonderful craftsmanship flourished again from the 1920s onwards, with great innovation and modern models.

Preview Auction ‘Modern Art’ March 26, 2025

The Modern Art collection boasts some impressive names. Joan Miró’s aquatint etching ‘Escalade vers la lune’ (1969) enchants with its free composition of symbolic forms and the artist’s typically suggestive use of color (estimated price € 8,000 – 12,000). Marc Chagall’s lithograph ‘Le Verger’ is one of a series of lithographs in which the artist illustrated the mythical story of Daphnis and Chloé by the Greek author Longus (estimated price €8,000 – 10,000). In his unmistakable artistic language, Chagall created a bucolic dream landscape in which Mediterranean nature has blossomed and humans and animals live together in peace.
