Auction Preview: Palais Dorotheum


Peder Severin Krøyer
Self-Portrait
oil on canvas  50 X 41.5 cm


The Austrian auction house, Dorotheum, is holding its auction of 19th Century Paintings early next month at the Palais Dorotheum, in Vienna.  Among the 180 lots are a few familiar names, like Krøyer, Stevens, Bøcklin, von Blaas, Nono, Herzog, and Boldini, but many more of the artists are lesser known here in the United States.  Represented strongly in this sale are the other artists of the 19th century, those who trained, lived, and worked on the European continent (excluding France).  

The catalog is available for viewing online, and includes a nice zoom feature, and the ability to download high-resolution images of each of the lots.

Thanx for the link. I wish Sotheby's and Christie's had "download hi-res image" feature.
