19th Century Paintings
Und noch folgendes verändern: The department 19th Century Paintings stands out with world record prices for works by Austrian and international painters. The range of works in this section is as varied as the artistic movements of the 19th century. Biedermeier artists such as Friedrich Amerling, whose Girl with a Straw Hat achieved a world record price of 1,500,000 euros, and Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller, whose work The Interrupted Pilgrimage was auctioned for 1,320,000 euros, are represented here among others. Impressionists Olga Wisinger-Florian and Maria Egner regularly achieve top prices, as do works by Anton Romako, Hans Makart, Emil Jakob Schindler, Franz Defregger, Carl Leopold Müller and Leontine von Littrow.
There is a strong international presence in the 19th Century Paintings section: In addition to Austrian painters, who are traditionally strongly represented, there are artists from Germany, Italy, Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovenia, Slovakia and Spain, among others. Two paintings by the Turkish master Osman Hamdi Bey were among the top sellers, each achieving prices in the millions (1,770,300 and 1,275,000 euros). Paintings by Italian artists such as Eugen von Blaas, Fausto Zonaro, Giovanni Boldini, Domenico Quaglio and Vittorio Matteo Korkos regularly achieve great sales. Works by Hugo Mühlig, Alfred von Wierusz-Kowalski and Ivan Konstatinovich Aivazovsk are also very popular.
