Locating in a future auction sale a piece of art or of furniture or a collectible that is exceptional in its category, and then analyzing and communicating, constitutes a cultural act.

To be listening to the world auction is an effective means for each one among us to open our mind on the fields which we do not know.

Pierre Tavlitzki replied to Pierre Tavlitzki's discussion The Coronation of Marie de Médicis in the group Jewels
"The Beau Sancy was sold CHF 9M including premium, well above its estimate. Its price per carat, CHF 250K, is remarkable. Such enthusiasm for a historical gem is not common. Hopefully its success will attract to the market other exceptional…"

Good and Evil in Brescia

At the time
 of
 Titian,
 Brescia 
depended on
 the republic of Venice.
 The master
 painter
 working in the city
 was called 
Girolamo 
di
 Romano, named after the
 village where 
his family originated.
 His
 artist name
 was 
Il
 Romanino. On 
June 6 
in New
 York,
 Christie's sells 
a
 Cross 
Bearer 
by 
Romanino, oil on
 canvas 81
x
72 cm,
 estimated
 $ 2.5
M.
This episode of the 
Passion of Christ 
promotes 
the stoicism of the Christians
 against humiliation, 
symbolized by 
the cross,

Pierre Tavlitzki replied to Pierre Tavlitzki's discussion Breguet, the Physicist of Time in the group Watches and Clocks
"Forget the estimates. The press release was convincing, and the two Breguet watches are masterpieces from one of the most brilliant periods of watchmaking. Technically very bold, the watch with two movements from 1814 was sold CHF 4.3 million…"
Monday
Pierre Tavlitzki replied to Pierre Tavlitzki's discussion America and World in the group Watches and Clocks

Pierre Tavlitzki replied to Pierre Tavlitzki's discussion Allegory of Dutch Painting in the group Ancient Art
"Of course this interesting allegory of painting was worth more than its estimate. It was sold € 3.8 million including premium."

Rivera and the Future of Mexico

The art of Diego Rivera had a revolutionary goal. His large murals are calling for a new social order for his country, Mexico, just out the failures of the civil wars. Mexicans have a strong cultural and ethnic identity, and its future is in the hands of the children. Diego looks the indigenous children growing up, and Juanita became his favorite model. In 1939, she is ten years old. She stands barefoot, in long skirt, at the corner of an empty room that reflects her humble social condition.…See More

Yellow Treasure in Arbois

It is a mystery of chemistry: some exceptional wines never become obsolete. I have already discussed in this group the Château Cheval Blanc of 1947 and the 1961 Hermitage La Chapelle. For some antique vintages, winemakers knew to put aside prestigious bottles, opened with such parsimony that some of them still remain. We have already discussed the Madeira 1795. I introduce now a vin jaune (yellow wine) from French Jura. Arbois has a very old tradition of winemaking, and the 1774 vintage was…See More

Pierre Tavlitzki replied to Pierre Tavlitzki's discussion The Ghost of George Dyer in the group Modern Art
"Today's collectors love the works charged with an intense emotion. The success was thus assured in advance for this posthumous figure sold $ 45M including premium."

Pierre Tavlitzki replied to Pierre Tavlitzki's discussion The Frenetic Bustle of Elvis Presley in the group Modern Art
"Elvis was not the best known in the early pantheon of the stars that inspired Warhol. This double figure is undeniably interesting and strange. It was sold $ 37M including premium."

Enameled Art is Still Hot

Every now and then, a unique piece of Cleveland School art comes up for auction. Most collectors have a few watercolors, a painting or perhaps a sculpture. Names such as Edris Eckhardt, William Sommer and Carl Gaertner are some of the most recognized names.



You may have seen this name, Edward Winter, and never thought twice about it. Maybe while perusing a yard sale or estate sale, you picked up one of his items but the name didn't mean anything. Until now...
