  • RCEWA Case Xx
    Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art and Objects of Cultural Interest: Note of case hearing on 18 July 2012: A painting by Pablo Picasso, Child with a Dove (Case 3, 2012-13) Application 1. The Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art and Objects of Cultural Interest (RCEWA) met on 18 July 2012 to consider an application to export a painting by Pablo Picasso, Child with a Dove. The value shown on the export licence application was £50,000,000, which represented the sale price. The expert adviser had objected to the export of the painting under the first, second and third Waverly criteria i.e. on the grounds that it was so closely connected with our history and national life that its departure would be a misfortune, that it was of outstanding aesthetic importance and that it was of outstanding significance for the study of the birth of modernism and the reception of modernism in the UK. 2. The seven regular RCEWA members present were joined by three independent assessors, acting as temporary members of the Reviewing Committee. 3. The applicant confirmed that the value did include VAT and that VAT would be payable in the event of a UK sale. The applicant also confirmed that the owner understood the circumstances under which an export licence might be refused and that, if the decision on the licence was deferred, the owner would allow the painting to be displayed for fundraising. Expert’s submission 4. The expert had provided a written submission stating that the painting, Child with a Dove, was one of the earliest and most important works by Picasso to enter a British collection.

The image of a young girl reading, based on this iconography of the Virgin in the Annunciation, evokes an air of piety and virtuousness, but also of autonomy, of having free time for herself. And by extension it conveys a pos­ itive view of education for women. The iconography of the Annunciation is contradictory: the young woman’s words stress her submission and humil­ ity, but the presence of the book she holds expresses an idea of intellectual superiority and capacity. renaissance portraits Portraits of ladies with books have a noticeable elegance that is afforded by cul­ ture and the huge importance society attaches to knowledge.

  • The Emil Bührle Collection: Works of International Artists – the Complete List
    The Emil Bührle Collection: Works of international artists – the complete list Lukas Gloor This list was compiled based upon the archive of the Foundation E.G. Bührle Collection, Zurich, and includes all the 633 purchases of artworks (paintings, works on paper, sculptures) made by Emil Bührle for his private collection mostly between 1936 and 1956. Much useful information was supplied by Laurie A. Stein, Chicago/Berlin and her provenance research on behalf of the Emil Bührle Collection, which helped to locate many sources on Emil Bührle’s acquisitions in other archives. The list is in chronological order, with the medieval sculptures in the collection at the end. There is also an appendix containing a list of works by Swiss artists that were acquired for the Oerlikon Bührle & Co. machine tool company as well as the pictures that entered the collection via the Prix Buhrle, which was sponsored by Bührle in Paris in 1952 and 1953. (Neither list claims to be exhaustive.) The list does not contain the small number of works of applied and antique art acquired by Emil Bührle. The locations indicated for the works are those that applied when the Foundation E.G. Bührle Collection was established in February 1960. Works transferred to the Foundation by Emil Bührle’s heirs at the time are listed as such, together with their numbers in the foundation deed; those that remained in private ownership are listed as 1960 : PC. The list discloses the prices paid for the works when purchased, where known. They are published in the belief that this information is of importance to historical research into the art market and reveals much about the motivations underlying the creation of an individual collection.

INTRODUCTION 1 Investigating signatures touches upon the real core of art history: connoisseurship. The construction of oeuvres is one of the basic tasks of art historians. Besides documents, they therefore inevitably have to make use of signatures. However, several great connoisseurs – Berenson, Friedländer – emphasize that signatures are faked quite often. Consequently, an investigation of signature practices can easily be criticized for the mere fact that it is very difficult to be sure of the authenticity of all the studied signatures.
