Leading the way in the photography auction is the collection of 70 portraits from "People of the 20th Century" by August Sander (EUR 300,000-500,000). Shortly before his death in 1961/63, Sander was able to make this selection for his last exhibition. The entire offering comes from a European corporate collection and also includes early photographs from the 19th century with Negres, Cameron, and Kühn to modern classics by Renger-Patzsch, Steinert, and Irving Penn.

Time for a new narrative: Grisebach’s approaching evening auction will bring modern art highlights into dialogue with contemporary positions. This heated juxtaposition will surely spark many surprises. Lovis Corinth’s powerfully moving still life, "Rosen, Tulpen, Flieder," from 1916 (EUR 300,000-400,000) thus comes head to head with Roy Lichtenstein’s Claude Monet inspired work, "Water Lilies," from 1992 (EUR 200,000-300,000).

Charles Nègre
Portrait d'homme devant une tapisserie. 1853
Vintage, salt print and waxed paper negative
17,9 × 13,7 and 18,5 × 14,4 cm. (7 × 5 ⅜ and 7 ¼ × 5 ⅝ in.)
Estimate: EUR 4.000 – 6.000
 
 
Arnulf Rainer’s sinister overpainting of Karl Kraus’ photographed death mask from 1984 (EUR 40,000-60,000) suddenly seems like a condensed abstract revival of Käthe Kollwitz’s haunting India ink drawing, "Tod," (1897, EUR 150,000-200,000).

Max Beckmann’s brilliant painting, “Kleine Landschaft aus Bandol,” (1938, EUR 300,000- 500,000) and Heinrich Kühn’s photograph, "Landschaft mit Linden," (EUR 100,000-120,000) – a masterpiece of pictorialism – also form this particular kind of pairing with reciprocal charges.
