Welcome to Bruun Rasmussen’s auction 776 In response to the rising internationalisation of the auction world, Bruun Rasmussen’s last catalogue was issued in English. This initiative was very well received and therefore, the catalogues of paintings, antiques and decorative art will henceforth also be published in English. Please note, however, that all texts will be available in Danish on our homepage www.bruun-rasmussen.dk. May we add that, as always, our staff is ready to help with any inquiries during the house’s daily opening hours. Another new approach is for the house to have the precious stones graded by an external expert. This task has been allotted to Danish Gem Lab as we are firmly of the belief that it will contribute to the credibility which is an absolute prerequisite for the acquisition of jewellery. The size of the finger rings will now be stated, though it is important in this context to remember that by far the majority of rings can be made to fit without any problems, and this is something with which we are always happy to assist. Something truly special: this catalogue will present four sumptuous watches by the firm of Urban Jürgensen. Originally a Danish company of watchmakers, in existence since the 18th century, Urban Jürgensen are associated with the ultimate in technical perfection, quality and design. An account of the watches and the story behind the name is given in the article on page 30. This auction offers an encounter with a collection of small antiquities owned by the Danish sculptor Helen Schou, who died recently. During her long life – she lived to be more than 100 – she succeeded in assembling an excellent art collection. The antiquities were bought by Helen Schou in the 1930s and 1940s and more information about them is provided on page 96. Also featured in the catalogue is the Greenland hunter and wood carver Johan Kreutzmann, who is represented by four unique figures, formerly owned by the Greenland traveller Peter Freuchen. Kreutzmann’s extraordinary life on a Greenland trading station is described in the article on page 94. Also coming under the hammer at this auction are variety of works by the artist, designer and art critic Johan Rohde. These all come from the collection of his son, H.P. Rohde, and many of them can be found in the paintings catalogue, while Rohde’s furniture appears in this catalogue together with an article about his design on page 8. At this time Bruun Rasmussen Estates are handling the sale of Rohde’s house. He designed the building, its furniture and fixings in 1919 and lived there until his death in 1935. This is a home filled with the atmosphere created by an enthusiast who cared passionately. It has a wealth of superb details which reflect Rohde’s aesthetic sense. Read more about the house on page 386. We sincerely hope you enjoy the catalogue and look forward to seeing you at the preview and the auction.
