The Helmut N. Friedlander Library, Part I (Ny, April 23, 2001)

NY: Christie's, 2001. First Printing. Hard Cover. Publisher's full gray linen cloth, gilt lettering on cover and spine. Profusely illustrated entirely in color. This is the catalog for Christie's Sale No. 9630, held in New York on April 23, 2001. 185 Lots. "Helmut Friedlaender's wonderful incunabula - his library's forte - and to a lesser extent the selective group of medieval manuscripts, the milestones of science and literature of later centuries, demonstrate what could still be done in traditional collecting at a time when it seemed to some cognoscenti that choice might be running out. If desire was strong enough, means and energy sufficiently available - and Mr Friedlaender had all of these - rare books were to be found. In fact, he showed two other qualities essential to any collector: persistence and patience." Among the highlights mentioned were such items as: the Pforzheimer vellum copy of the 1465 Mainz Cicero (lot 39); the fabulous Auersperg copy on vellum of Theuerdank (lot 172); the Buxheim Monastery set of the Koberger edition of Antoninus Florentinus' Chronicon remarried after a century with its original flyleaf bearing the woodcut bookplate of Hilprand Brandenburg (lot 15); a Bohemian illuminated manuscript of Gregory I's Moralia (lot 4); Heine's Romanzero inscribed to Baroness James de Rothschild (lot 160), the first edition of Pushkin's first collection of poems (lot 174), and almost complete collections of first editions of Kafka (lots 364-378) and Gunter Grass (lot 313), mostly acquired from or through Quaritch,; and other works in science and philosophy, law and Judaica. Lots 186-234 comprise "a highly unusual and carefully formed collection of documents dating from the 12th to the 20th centuries which bear seal impressions in wax. Seals of this type were affixed to a wide range of documents in order to certify the authority and validity of the contents, whether an indenture, appointment, proclamation or legal agreement." - Catalog.. Both the volume and the dust jacket are in perfect condition, unmarked, tight, square, and clean. AS NEW/AS NEW. Christie's Auction Catalogs Series. Catalog. Vol. 9630.

Latin American Sale (Two Volumes, November 19 & 20, 2007)

NY: Christie's, 2007. First Printing. Soft Cover. Christie's catalogs for Sale Nos. 1907A and 1907B, held in New York on November 19 and 20, 2007. The Evening Sale on November 19 has 185 pp. and 78 lots. The Day Sale on November 20 has 233 pp. and 224 lots. All lots are illustrated in color, with several fold-outs. "Following yesterday’s spirited Evening Sale of Latin American Art which realized $21,671,000 and set twelve new world auction, the Day Sale continued in the same energetic vein, bringing the Fall 2007 total to $28,118,088. Combined with the $28.9 million fetched in the Spring 2007 Latin American Sale and the $2.78 million total achieved for the selection of Latin American Paintings included in the July 17 & 18 María Félix: La Doña sale, Christie’s grand total for Latin American Art this year is $59.8 million."The Latin American Art market has made a strong comeback with a record year for the field at Christie’s," said Virgilio Garza, Head of the Latin American Art department. "The two Latin American Sales Christie’s organized in 2007 broke records for the Mexican masters such as Alfredo Ramos Martínez, Remedios Varo, Leonora Carrington, and for contemporary artists such as Adriana Varejão, and Kcho, among many others. Fernando Botero was a strong force in the field and continues his reputation as the most successful living Latin American artist. This category has rapidly and deservedly, transformed into a truly global collecting field with a demographic of buyers.""The Evening Sale was noteworthy on many levels. The persistent demand for modern Mexican paintings was clearly visible with a 100% sold Tamayo segment and very strong prices for concrete & geometric South American abstraction, including for works by Hlito, Asis, and Camargo. It was also a remarkable feat to have two new record prices for women artists - $1.27 million for Remedios Varo and $457,000 for Amelia Pelaez - a wonderful achievement which emphasizes the importance and recognition of female artists in the Latin American realm. And last but not least, the new record established for a sculpture by Botero at $1.6 million for his majestic Mujer Fumando, univocally re-endorsed his position as the most revered and sought after living Latin American artist."In July, the auction of the estate of María Félix - La Doña focused the world’s eyes on New York as hundreds of fans paid tribute to the international movie star, art collector and humanitarian. Over the course of two days, auctioneers fielded lively bids from an international audience, with active bidding in the room, on the phone, and a strong presence from online buyers which resulted in a $7.3 million total, far succeeding the pre-sale estimate and once again honoring the immense appeal of the inimitable La Doña.".
