Sotheby’s Old Master & 19th Century European Art auctions are celebrated for their rich variety. From 17th and 18th century Italian Baroque paintings to the genre paintings, sporting and marine subjects originating from all parts of Europe throughout the 19th century, the diversity of the works being offered is evident. The Old Master section is highlighted with works by both Francesco and Giacomo Guardi; Adriaen van Ostade’s Peasant Brawl in a Tavern (included in a group of Dutch still-lifes and landscapes); and portraits by British masters Raeburn and Lawrence. Late 19th century paintings from France, Italy, Belgium, Spain, England and Poland showcase the era’s talents for depicting domestic dramas and communal celebrations. There are also selections of Barbizon, Orientalist, Symbolist and Belle Epoque works to be discovered among the broad and varied array of offerings, including a newly-discovered painting by Edwin Lord Weeks and Property from the Estate of Mary Warburg.
