Nie jest to pastel lecz akwarela Maurycego Minkowskiego i to w dodatku niezła. Posiłek rodziny żydowskiej w dość schludnej izbie. Realia międzywojennej Polski?

O ten obraz Leopolda Gottlieba toczyła się niezwykle zażarta walka. Licytacja rozpoczęła się od $40,000. W katalogu brakowało informacji o pochodzeniu tej pracy ale musiała być potężna. Obraz niewątpliwie muzealnej wartości.

Jak na olej Kislinga to obecnie cena zakupu nie była wysoka. Temat jednak trochę nietypowy, być może odbiegający od oczekiwań.

To dość niezwykła kolekcja rzeźb Igora Mitoraja na sukcji w Amero Auctions na Florydzie. Większość rzeźb, za wyjątkiem dwóch, to prace niskonakładowe, właściwie wykonane w kilku egzemplarzach. W późniejszym okresie, chyba francuski Artcurial zabrał się za masową produkcję niektórych spośród nich i te (w zasadzie bezwartościowe) nakłady sięgają kilku tysięcy egzemplarzu i są w ciągłej sprzedaży, również w Polsce. Rzeźby z obecnej aukcji są chyba pomiejszone w stosunku do wielkich orginałów lecz ich zaletą jest ten niski nakład oraz wymiar pozwalający na ekspozycję w domu. Prezentuję je wszytkie z aukcji oczekując zaskoczenia w przebiciach bardzo niskich cen estymacyjnych.

Prac Stanisława Dębickiego jest mało na rynku. Jego Portret myśliwego jest niezły i lecz równocześnie może być mało atrakcyjny dla kolekcjonerów. W dodatku, obraz najwyraźniej przyjechał do Niemiec z Polski, gdzie był wystawiany w estymacją 18,500 – 22,000 złotych w 2015 roku. Mamy zatem nieudaną ponowną próbę sprzedaży tej akwareli, chyba na polski rynek bo pocóż Niemcowi taka droga praca. Z kolei rasowy polski handlarz dobrze sprawdzi, że na nim nic nie zarobi. I tak w koło Macieju.
