Særegne skulpturer og dansk surrealisme
”Jeg har altid haft nok i menneskekroppen” udtalte Erik Thommesen engang om sin kunst.
Kroppens anatomi dannede udgangspunkt for den danske billedhugger, men mere som en abstrakt skildring af hvad det vil sige at være menneske end en direkte afbildning. Thommesen
fokuserede på det alment eksistentielle, hvilket får hans smukke værker til at fremstå vedkommende også i dag. På årets første auktion i Bredgade er det derfor en stor fornøjelse at kunne
præsentere en af de betydeligste private samlinger af Thommesens skulpturer fra 1944-74 – en
samling, der giver et rigt indblik i Thommesen homogene produktion. De fleste af de udbudte
værker er fremstillet af forskellige former for hårdt træ og vidner om, at kunstneren foretrak
at arbejde på gammeldags vis uden elektrisk værktøj. Metoden med sav og stemmejern var
tidskrævende, og derfor er hans produktion forholdsvis lille.
I dag har Thommesens værker fundet vej til forskellige danske museer, heriblandt Statens
Museum for Kunst. Det var ellers en helt anden karriere, der lå i kortene for Thommesen, der
som ung læste zoologi på Københavns Universitet. Som kunstner forblev han autodidakt og
satte en ære i ikke at lade sig påvirke af tidens kunstretninger, men selvom han søgte uden om
det tidstypiske, indgik han i forskellige fællesskaber, kortvarigt med Cobragruppen og gennem
30 år med Martsudstillingen. Arkitekten Finn Juhl spillede også en vigtig rolle, og deres fælles
passion for træet som materiale dannede grobund for gensidig inspiration på tværs af kunstarter. Mens Thommesens skulpturer var en del af indretningen i Juhls private hjem i Ordrup,
boede Thommesen i et hus, som Juhl havde tegnet. Den udbudte samling stammer fra en af
Thommesens andre beundrere, bogtrykker Jørgen Nielsen, og inkluderer to tæpper af hustruen
Anna Thommesen, der er studier til hendes udsmykning af alterpartiet i Roskilde Domkirke
(kat. nr. 541-553).
Menneskekroppen spillede også en afgørende rolle for den danske kunstner Wilhelm Freddie
– omend i en noget anden form. Værket ”Nonnens bøn” har med sin titel og de små papirlapper med inskriptionen ”INRI” kristne referencer og tilhører en værkgruppe, der kun sjældent
udbydes på markedet. Det blev til i 1937 – samme år, som Freddie afholdt sin skandaleombruste
udstilling ”Træk Gaflen ud af Øjet på Sommerfuglen. Sex Surreal”, der under stor mediebevågenhed blev lukket af politiet og medførte, at kunstneren blev dømt for ”offentlig udstilling
af utugtigt indhold”. Freddie bekendte sig til den internationale kunstretning surrealismen
og frontfiguren André Bretons tanker, hvilket det udbudte værks absurde og underbevidste
karakter vidner om (kat.nr. 592).
Derudover byder auktionen på Asger Jorns farverige dobbeltmaleri ”Animaux animé(s)” fra
1946, en billedserie af den tyske kunstner Günther Förg og grafik i verdensklasse med Picassos
abstraktioner og Andy Warhols berømte portræt af Marilyn Monroe.
Vel mødt!

Distinctive sculptures and Danish Surrealism
“The human body has always been enough for me,” Erik Thommesen once said about his art.
The work of the Danish sculptor was based on the human anatomy, but more as an abstract
depiction of what it means to be human than a direct representation. Thommesen focused on
the basic tenets of existentialism, affording his beautiful works relevance to this day. At the
first auction of the year at Bredgade, it is therefore our great pleasure to present one of the
most important private collections of Thommesen’s sculptures from 1944–74 – a collection
that provides a rich insight into his homogeneous production. Most of the works up for auction
are made of different kinds of hardwood and testify to the fact that the artist preferred to work
in the old-fashioned way without electrical tools. His method, using a saw and chisel, was time
consuming, hence his relatively small production.
Today, Thommesen’s works have found their way to various Danish museums, including the
National Gallery of Denmark. A completely different career had actually been on the cards for
Thommesen, who as a young man studied zoology at the University of Copenhagen. He was a
self-taught artist who took pride in not being influenced by the art currents of his day. However, despite shunning the norm, he joined various communities – a brief spell with the CoBrA
Group and 30 years with Martsudstillingen (the March exhibition). The architect Finn Juhl also
played an important role, and their shared passion for wood as a material formed the basis for
mutual inspiration across the art forms. While Thommesen’s sculptures adorned Juhl’s private
home in Ordrup, Thommesen lived in a house designed by Juhl. The collection up for auction
comes from another of Thommesen’s admirers, printer Jørgen Nielsen, and includes two rugs
by his wife Anna Thommesen, which are studies for her decoration of the altar in Roskilde
Cathedral (cat. no. 541-553).
The human body also played a key role in Danish artist Wilhelm Freddie’s work, albeit in a
somewhat different form. The work “Nonnens bøn” (the nun’s prayer), with its title and small
scraps of paper bearing the inscription “INRI”, has Christian references and belongs to a group
of works rarely seen at auction. It was created in 1937 – the same year that Freddie held his
scandalous exhibition “Træk Gaflen ud af Øjet på Sommerfuglen. Sex Surreal” (Pull the fork
out of the butterfly’s eye. Sex surreal), which was closed by the police under close media attention and led to the artist being convicted of “public exhibition of obscene content”. Freddie
subscribed to the international art movement Surrealism and the thinking of its front figure
André Breton, which is apparent in the absurd and subconscious nature of the work up for
auction (cat.no. 592).
In addition, the auction features Asger Jorn’s colourful double painting “Animaux animé(s)”
from 1946, a series of paintings by the German artist Günther Förg and world-class graphic art
with Picasso’s abstractions and Andy Warhol’s famous portrait of Marilyn Monroe.
We look forward to seeing you!

CoBrA from a private collection
Lot no. 530 - 540
Over the following spread, it is our pleasure to present a collection of CoBrA
works from a Danish private collection. The collection began to take shape,
slowly but surely, with the purchase of graphic art by Asger Jorn and Pierre
Alechinsky in the student days of the current owner, who was around 20 at
the time. These early purchases would – in classic collector style – awaken
the desire for more, and over a period of some 50 years, the collection has
been expanded to include outstanding works by Ejler Bille and Karel Appel,
Asger Jorn in small format, not to mention monumental works by Pierre
Wemaëre and Reinhoud d’Haese.
Other works from this collection: lot no. 669, 670, 711, 753, 754.

Thommesen – works from
printer Jørgen Nielsen’s collection
Lot no. 541 - 553
The first international auction of the year at Bredgade promises something quite extraordinary, when we
present the most significant private collection of works by the artist couple Erik Thommesen (1916–2008)
and Anna Thommesen (1908–2004) ever to be offered to the public at auction – quite possibly a once in
a lifetime opportunity. These are works of a consistent quality, from different periods and in different materials. The collection, which was established in the period from around 1960 to 1975, comes from printer
Jørgen Nielsen, one of the few private collectors in the period to appreciate the Thommesen’s unique
artistic qualities. Nielsen’s meeting with Erik and Anna Thommesen developed into a lifelong passion, a
close friendship and an ongoing dialogue, which meant that he often spent days at a time in the couple’s
company and regularly purchased their works.
In the catalogue, we have been able to reproduce some of Jørgen Nielsen’s private photographs – a
photo­­graphic record of the Thommesen’s house and studio in the early 1970s. Interestingly enough,
a house designed by another early admirer of Erik Thommesen’s sculptures in particular, furniture
designer Finn Juhl (1912–1989), who liked to exhibit his own pieces with Thommesen’s sculptures, and
also adorned his own home and his design studio with them. This artistic kinship across and in spite of
art forms – function versus non-function – seems obvious today. Both explore the potential and the
resilience of the wood. A sense of something organic and vital exists in both their works. When he was
active, Finn Juhl experienced sliding in and out of an international public’s awareness, and, in addition,
interest in his furniture has seen a dramatic revival in recent years. One could certainly wish the same
for Erik Thommesen’s works – and not least the public at large – as, both in their day and now, the works
possess a unique expression and presence.
Several important historical references can be linked to Erik Thommesen’s works, including his relationship to the CoBrA group. A relationship which, according to Thommesen aficionado Henning Jørgensen,
was neither profound nor peripheral. Erik Thommesen himself considered CoBrA a “semblance of a group,
a superficial phenomenon that emanated from Asger Jorn’s enterprise”. Erik Thommesen’s main exhibition context was, however, the undogmatic Martsudstilling (March exhibition), which he – and Ejler Bille
among others – initiated in 1951, and where he exhibited over the next 30 years. Erik Thommesen’s works
are unschooled and not an extension of any specific tradition or specific models. They are about the
human form and the basic tenets of existentialism. The works up for auction, which date from 1944 to
1974, testify to an outstandingly rigorous and homogeneous production.
The tone of Erik Thommesen’s sculptures resonates in Anna Thommesen’s geometric carpets, although the
works could hardly be more different. From an equally self-taught background, she went on to receive
commissions for major official decorating assignments, including for the New Carlsberg Foundation
and the Danish Arts Foundation. The two carpets in Jørgen Nielsen’s collection are studies for her most
high-profile assignment: the decoration of the altar in Roskilde Cathedral (1974–77). Anna Thommesen’s
carpets are abstract, but with nature and its colour tones at their core, right into the material – the yarn
– which, from the outset, she even dyed herself using plant extracts. Like her husband, Anna Thommesen
instils her impressions with an existential essence – down-to-earth and demure, yet monumental.

podium carpet - Roskilde Cathedral). Woven in geometric patterns in white, green and
light blue colours. 178 x 121 cm.
A sketch signed Anna Thommesen, Tæppe til Jørgen (Rug for Jørgen) 1973, gouache on
parchment, visible size 28 x 20 cm., enclosed. (2)
Provenance: Printer Jørgen Nielsen, Frederiksberg. Acquired 1973 directly from the artist and
hence by descent in the family.
As a real artist, Anna Thommesen wanted to manage the work through the whole working
process with the rug. A working process in which she was always in charge of herself - from
the sketch to colouring of the yarn and finally the weaving.The inspiration in her geometric
and always doubble- symmetric rugs, seems to be based on the ethnic, South American art
of textile. However the actural inspiration and colour composition comes from the nordic
colour- and nature impressions that also appear in the work of her husband, Erik Thommesen.

b. Vejrum 1914, d. Århus 1973
"Animaux animé(s)" (Animated Animals) and Untitled, 1946. Signed on one side Jorn
46. Painted recto et verso. Oil on canvas. 74 x 99 cm.
The work up for auction lends meaning to the phrase "two sides of the same coin",
given the rather unusual nature of it: it actually consists of two evenly matched
paintings, painted within six months of each other. Both motifs are listed with independent reference numbers in Guy Atkins' catalogue, and the canvas is beautifully
framed, so the choice of painting on display is entirely optional - neither motif plays
second fiddle to the other. The earlier of the two (Atkins no. 435) was painted in
Dragør where, in the winter of 1946, Asger Jorn borrowed his friend, architect and
art collector, Robert Dahlmann Olsen's house. The later work was probably painted
on the island of Orust, north of Gothenburg, where Jorn visited his Swedish
colleague Nils Wedel (1897-1967) in the summer of 1946. The colourful creatures in the
earlier painting hark back to the bird figures in love of the Didaska paintings, while
the rhythmic drawing with its marked contours and organic lines in both works
points towards the denser compositions of Jorn's later production. In both motifs,

myriad figures and animal beings are emerging from the vibrating background - in
the later motif with a hint of a classical perspective landscape.
Asger Jorn's Scandinavian travels in 1945-46 are the artist's erliest exploration of
Nordic art, a theme and an interest that run like a thread through his work.
Literature: Guy Atkins: "Jorn in Scandinavia 1930-1953", London, 1968, no. 435 and
453, ill. pp. 364 and 366.
Exhibited: "Tre unge malere" (Three young artists), retrospective exhibition, with Frede
Christoffersen and Knud Nielsen, Kunstforeningen, Copenhagen, 1953, cat. no. 66. Jorn
himself chose the paintings for this exhibition, which was his first retrospective. He
wrote letters to collectors while he was in the Silkeborg Sanatorium, and compiled the
details for the catalogue. The titles and dates therefore have a special authenticity and
the choice of pictures reflects Jorn's personal preference.

"Karel Appel has always been attracted to the physical
aspects of painting - to the bodily act of moving colour
across a surface and magically bringing it to glorious life.
Throughout his long career, he has never cared much about
staying properly within the limits of what could, at any
given moment, be called his style. The adventure of painting,
the physical adventure, has led him to discoveries and
innovations rooted within the practice itself. Because he
has been very willing to go with the energy of the practice (like Picasso, unable to resist all the sudden, surprising
attractions), his art has explored many directions and yet
remains unified by a marvellous signature: an extraordinary fluency of form and colour that is unmistakably his".

Vilhelm Bjerke-Petersen
Surrealistic composition, 1934
The abstract/surrealistic painting from 1934 is a very interesting work of art. It was probably
painted at the end of 1933 and finished early in January 1934 in time for the exhibition later in
January 1934.
It is a flat picture without any perspective. It is a work the composition and colours of which are
clearly influenced by Joan Miro but also by Vasily Kandinsky and Paul Klee. Apart from these influences he has included symbols in the elements of the painting. These symbols are of a surrealistic
nature. The painting requires the beholder to form his/her own opinion. The painting consists of
outer and inner properties. The outer property is what you see, forms, colours, lines, symbols and
the interaction between them. The inner property is the analysis each beholder forms by looking
at the painting. The question as to how a beholder perceives a painting, not only in relation to
an artist’s theory or explanation, but just as much by looking at it, is interesting because a person’s associative perception of an abstract-surrealistic painting is free and therefore interpretations may be legio. This may also explain why beholders are hesitant to describe and analyse an
abstract-surrealistic painting.
Educated at the Art Academy in Oslo, Norway and at Bauhaus, Dessau, in Germany where he was
pupil during the winter term 1930/31. Among his teachers were Vassili Kandinsky and Paul Klee.
From 1932 he worked with fellow artists Richard S. Mortensen and Ejler Bille. In 1933 he published
the book “symbols in abstract art”. They formed the group “The Line”, published a periodical of the
same name and organised the exhibition in January 1934. After publication of his book “surrealism” in the autumn of 1934 the group broke up and Vilhelm Bjerke Petersen joined forces with
other surrealistic artists.
The break meant that Richard Mortensen and Ejler Bille took over the periodical The Line whereas
Vilhelm Bjerke Petersen took over the exhibition activities.
He continued with these activities and arranged an international exhibition, cubism - surrealism,
(kubisme - surrealisme) with an introduction by André Breton and the participation of a number
of surrealists from France, the Group Gravitations, Danish and Norwegian artists and the Swedish
Halmstad Group of surrealistic artists in January 1935. The selection of the surrealists from France
was taken care of by André Breton, Max Ernst (1891 - 1976) and the Swedish painter Erik Olson
(1901-1986), who at that time lived in Paris. It is interesting that most of the surrealists from
France were not French, only Valentine Hugo (1887-1968), Marie-Berthe Ernst (1910- ) and Yves
Tanguy (1900-1955) were French, whereas most of Group Gravitations were French. This was the
first time an international exhibition including surrealists was shown in Denmark.

592 WILHELM FREDDIE
CD
b. Copenhagen 1909, d. s.p. 1995
"Nonnens bøn" (The nun’s prayer). Signed Freddie 1937. Oil on canvas. 125 x 101 cm.
Exhibited: "Wilhelm Freddie. Stik Gaflen i Øjet!" (Wilhelm Freddie. Stick the fork in your eye!) ,
Statens Museum for Kunst (National Gallery of Denmark), Copenhagen and Kunsten, Aalborg,
2009-2010, ill. and mentioned in the catalogue p.p. 209-210.
The painting “Nonnens bøn” (The nun’s prayer) belongs to an exclusive group of works and a
period in Wilhelm Freddie’s production which only very rarely comes up for auction. 1937 was
the year of Wilhelm Freddie’s much talked about scandalous exhibition “Træk Gaflen ud af Øjet
på Sommerfuglen. Sex Surreal” (Pull the fork out of the eye of the butterfly. Sex Surreal) at Ole
Haslunds Hus in Copenhagen, which, under close media attention, was closed by police. The
works were confiscated and the artist was sentenced to mitigated imprisonment for the public
exhibition of obscene content. Wilhelm Freddie’s name was thus catapulted into broader public awareness in Denmark, but more as a result of the scandal than his art. Many years would
pass before he won his rightful place in Danish art history as a pioneer of surrealism. From the
early 1930s, Freddie was well informed about international Surrealism and the thinking of its
chief ideologist André Breton, a fact echoed in the artist’s remarks to the daily newspaper B.T.
in 1931, when he publicly links himself to Surrealism for the first time: “[My art] is based on the
theory that the subconscious, dreams and instincts are the only constants in human existence
(...). Surrealism is, it’s an over-realism that simply denies the outer reality, which is a delusion,
and leads the focal point to the inner reality” (quoted from Dorthe Aagesen pages 23–24 in the
above mentioned book).
In the painting “Nonnens bøn” (The nun’s prayer), an amorphous, chained figure with its back
to us is seen growing up out of the ground and into a mysterious, partly indefinable space.
Attached all over the figure’s body are notes with the initials INRI – the Latin inscription on
Jesus’ cross: Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum (Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews). In Wilhelm
Freddie’s artistic avant-garde project, no established norms or institutions are spared.
The photograph from Wilhelm Freddie’s archive shows the artist posing in front of the painting
in a previous state, where the figure is placed in a deep landscape-like space.

"Jeg gik mig over sø og land" (I travelled over Land and Sea), c. 1984. Signed
Trampedach, Pays Basque. Executed at Broome Street, New York. Oil on canvas.
296 x 248 cm.
Provenance: Acquired directly from the artist by the present owner.
Monumental paintings from Kurt Trampedach's New Yorker years are something of a
rarity on the Danish art market, as the majority of these works are exhibited and sold
through Allan Stone Gallery in New York. "Jeg gik mig over sø og land" (I travelled over sea and land) refers quite literally to
the shift in Kurt Trampedach's life and art which occurred around the time of his
move to the French Basque Country in 1980, and as a result of the even greater distance he placed between himself and Denmark when he left for New York in 1983.
His paintings of that period - this one included - mark a new start in Trampedach's
career - mentally, motif-wise and in terms of his use of colour, which now becomes
intense and glowing. The work up for auction offers a double vision, with a physical
effect on the beholder due to its sizable dimensions. In the depth (and looked at from
a distance) is a retrospective, thoughtful character, who insistently seeks the beholder's gaze over his shoulder. In the foreground (seen close up) figure and architecture
studies as well as texts with reference to the artist's new surroundings and world
of motifs in the Basque Country appear: the house in Sare (Sara), the mountain La
Rhune (Larrun), New [York], animals and people. An immensely personal account of
his travels through time and continents. DKK 150,000 / € 20,000

"As You, Find Me", 2008. Edition 11/15 + 2AP. Neon tubes and transformer. In original box with installation manual. The edition number
has kindly been confirmed by Studio Jeppe Hein, Berlin. 7 x 43 x 3 cm.
Provenance: Private collection, Denmark. Acquired directly from the artist
by the present owner.
The neon text "as you, find me" is a special edition referring to the tattoos of
the siblings Jeppe and Lærke Hein, a pairing of text created as artist Douglas
Gordon's (f. 1966) contribution to the bar project "Karriere" in Copenhagen
(2006-2014). The front side of the neon text is painted black in contrast to
the bluish light projected behind, thus intensifying the appearance of the
statement.

Surrealistic composition. Signed v.b.-p.-45. Oil on
masonite. 46 x 55 cm.
Vilhelm Bjerke Petersen fled with his family to
Sweden on a boat in the early morning of April
17th 1944. After the war Vilhelm Bjerke Petersen
stayed on in Sweden until he died in 1957, apart
from a stay in New York in 1946/47. The painting
was painted in Sweden sometime in 1945, possibly before May 1945.
The painting is divided into two parts horizontally, a smaller light inviting landscape above and
a larger black underground area with eight human beings drawn in white lines below; plants are
growing in the black area and from the human
beings and a butterfly can be seen as well. As the
human beings, they are also drawn in white lines.
This way to paint may be inspired by Max Ernst,
who in the twenties created black paintings with
figures drawn in white lines.

Arthur Köpcke was a Danish/German artist and gallerist in Copenhagen. He was affiliated with the groups
Le Nouveau Réalisme and particularly the Fluxus movement in the 60s, where he remained one of the
leading artists until his death in 1977. His art was tachist. Later he painted rebus paintings and “reading
works”, works, which were to involve the beholder. His garbage sculptures were made of all manner of
materials that he found. He also participated in a number of important Fluxus happenings over the years.
From 1960-1968, he was a member of Majudstillingen, a group of Danish artists. In 1973, he was a visiting
professor at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen.

"A mild, luminous painting from
1974 depicts an oriental sage standing somewhere outdoors with good
friends. His smile outshines the sun,
and in the background, there is a small
orange house under a large green tree.
He is dressed in red, so it could very
well be Skotte himself in the role of
Sikh, and the painting should perhaps
therefore be seen as a depiction of his
impossible dream of permanency".

748 MARCO EVARISTTI
CD
b. Chile 1963
"Pige" (Girl). Signed Evaristi 04. Bronze. H. 200 cm.
The idea for the sculpture is born on a street somewhere
in the former Yugoslavia in 2002, where the artist Marco
Evaristti sees a little girl, who makes a big impression on
him. The girl is missing an arm and a leg. She is pregnant
and no more than 13 years old. A bus drives passed her, and
the girl gives the bus the finger. The artist gets the feeling
that the girl is very proud despite the circumstances of her
life. He does not talk to the girl, but believes her to be a
mine victim.
In 2004, the sculpture was part of Folkekirkens Nødhjælp's
(DanChurchAid) mine clearing campaign 'Lars og Lone
rydder Albanien' (Lars and Lone to clear Albania). The artist
donated his proceeds from the sale of the bronze sculpture, and on the same occasion Politikens Galleri released
30 cm high casts of the sculpture.

købte varer, sker dette på købers regning og risiko. Bruun Rasmussen kan således ikke drages til ansvar for skader forvoldt på

§ 8. KUNSTNERAFGIFT TIL COPY-DA N
CD
Ifølge gældende dansk lovgivning om ophavsret skal der opkræves
følgeretsvederlag for værker af nyere danske og visse udenlandske kunstnere, som enten er nulevende eller ikke har været døde
i mere end 70 år. Følgeretsvederlaget opkræves af Bruun Rasmussen på vegne af kunstnernes organisation Copydan. Disse værker
er mærket (CD) for Copydan ud for katalognummeret.
Den såkaldte Copydan-afgift tillægges hammerslagsprisen inkl.
salær, når beløbet overstiger €300.
Copydan-afgiften er:
• 5% af den del af hammerslagsprisen og salæret (ekskl.
moms), der udgør indtil €50.000.
• 3% af den del af hammerslagsprisen og salæret (ekskl.
moms), der ligger mellem €50.000 og €200.000.
• 1% af den del af hammerslagsprisen og salæret (ekskl.
moms), der ligger mellem €200.000 og €350.000.
• 0,5% af den del af hammerslagsslagsprisen (ekskl. moms), der
ligger mellem €350.000 og €500.000.

ligger over €500.000.
Copydan-afgiften kan ikke overstige €12.500 for det enkelte
kunstværk.
Euro-kursen er fastsat af Copydan i 2015 til kurs 744,01 pr. €100.
Såfremt det må erkendes, at det købte er en forfalskning, eller
såfremt beskrivelsen har været behæftet med væsentlige fejl, der
har medført en væsentlig højere hammerslagspris, end en korrekt
beskrivelse må antages at ville have resulteret i, er køber berettiget til at annullere købet, hvorefter den samlede erlagte købesum tillagt auktionsomkostninger og evt. moms, vil blive refunderet køber.
Væsentlige fejl i beskrivelsen relateret til mål eller vægt erstattes
kun procentuelt i forhold til differencen.
Retten til under de her anførte betingelser at annullere et køb
kan kun udøves af den, der købte den pågældende effekt hos
Bruun Rasmussen og er betinget af, at krav om annullering
fremsættes skriftligt over for Bruun Rasmussen inden 2 år efter
købsdagen, og af at det købte inden samme frist returneres til
Bruun Rasmussen i den samme stand i enhver henseende, som
det købte var i på hammerslagstidspunktet.
Køber kan i tilfælde af annullering ikke gøre krav på betaling
af renter af købesummen og er ej heller berettiget til at kræve
anden udgift eller tab, herunder eventuel mistet videresalgsfortjeneste, dækket.
Et køb kan ikke kræves annulleret efter ovenstående bestemmelser, såfremt:
a. beskrivelsen i katalog eller på hjemmesiden på hammerslagsdagen var i overensstemmelse med den på dette tidspunkt
gældende opfattelse blandt lærde og eksperter.
b. den eneste måde til på salgstidspunktet at få fastslået et
falskneri var iværksættelsen af videnskabelige processer, hvis
gyldighed først blev anerkendt efter salgstidspunktet, eller som
ville have været uforholdsmæssigt omkostningskrævende eller
uigennemførlige uden beskadigelse af den pågældende effekt.
I tillæg til ovenstående frist gælder de almindelige forældelsesregler i forældelsesloven, efter hvilke køber ikke under nogen
omstændigheder kan gøre noget krav gældende over for Bruun
Rasmussen, når der er forløbet mere end 5 år fra købsdagen.

§ 9. EKSPORTTILLADELSE
Kulturværdiudvalget er blevet ansøgt om eksporttilladelse, hvor
dette kræves iflg. gældende dansk lovgivning om sikring af kulturværdier i Danmark. Foreligger en sådan ikke, vil dette blive
meddelt den udenlandske køber umiddelbart efter hammerslaget.
Derefter vil Bruun Rasmussen igen ansøge Kulturværdiudvalget på
købers vegne, nu hvor prisen kendes. Gives eksporttilladelse ikke,
er Kulturværdiudvalget forpligtet til at overtage det købte til den
opnåede pris, hvilket betyder at købet bliver hævet for køber.
§ 10. BESKRIVELSE AF EMNER
Alt sælges i den stand, hvori det ved hammerslaget er at forefinde og som beskrevet i katalog eller hjemmeside med senere
offentliggjorte ændringer og modifikationer.
Beskrivelsen er foretaget efter bedste overbevisning og under
anvendelse af de anførte katalogiseringsprincipper.
De solgte effekter er ofte af en alder eller af en art, der bevirker,
at de kan være behæftet med fejl, mangler, restaurering eller
beskadigelser, der ikke nødvendigvis angives i katalog eller på
hjemmesiden. Afbildninger i katalog eller på hjemmesiden er
blot til identifikation og kan ikke anvendes til vurdering af
effekternes stand.
Enhver der ønsker at byde på auktion, bør derfor ved selvsyn på
de før auktionen afholdte eftersyn forvisse sig om de ønskede
effekters stand.
Beskrivelsen er udtryk for den på salgstidspunktet blandt lærde
og eksperter herskende opfattelse.
Skulle der efter købet opstå tvivl om det købtes ægthed eller
dettes overensstemmelse med beskrivelsen, skal dette straks meddeles til Bruun Rasmussen.
BRUUN RASMUSSEN BREDGADE AUCTION 854
KOMMISSIONER
Bruun Rasmussen påtager sig at byde i kommission for bydere,
der ikke kan være til stede ved auktionen. Det er en forudsætning, at kommissioner indleveret pr. brev eller fax er Bruun Rasmussen i hænde i 24 timer før auktionens start, så om nødvendigt bydernes kreditværdighed kan undersøges. Via hjemmesiden
er denne deadline 3 timer. Bruun Rasmussen påtager sig intet
ansvar for eventuelle fejltagelser, der måtte opstå ved brug af
denne service
KONDITIONSRAPPORTER
Bruun Rasmussen påtager sig, hvis det er muligt, at orientere
nærmere om numrenes kondition og tilstand. Dette er ment som
en service for kunder, der ikke selv har mulighed for ved selvsyn
at undersøge numrene på eftersynet. Det understreges, at de
givne oplysninger ikke kan gøres til genstand for reklamationer;
her henvises til beskrivelsen.
FRITAGELSE FOR DANSK FULDMOMS
Købere skal ifølge § 2 betale fuldmoms af de varer der i katalog
eller på hjemmesiden er markeret med stjerne (*).
Når virksomheder, der er momsregistrerede i andre EU-lande,
køber hos Bruun Rasmussen og videresælger til private, skal der
ikke betales dansk moms, men moms i henhold til de regler der
gælder, hvor den udenlandske virksomhed er momsregistreret.
Det tilrådes at søge oplysning hos de lokale myndigheder.

arise after the purchase regarding the genuineness of the purchased lot or its conformance with the description, Bruun Rasmussen should immediately be informed thereof.
Should the purchased lot be proved to be a forgery, or if the
description contains material errors which lead to a considerably
higher hammer price than that which a correct description would
presumably result in, the buyer shall be entitled to cancel the purchase, after which the buyer shall be reimbursed for the total purchase price paid plus buyer’s premium and VAT, when applicable.
For material errors in the description in respect to measurements
or weight, compensation shall only be paid on a percentage
basis in proportion to the difference.
The right of cancellation of a purchase in pursuance of the
present conditions can only be exercised by the party who has
bought the lot in question at Bruun Rasmussen and shall be
subject to the presentation of a claim for cancellation in writing to Bruun Rasmussen within 2 years of the purchase date and
to the purchased lot being returned to Bruun Rasmussen in the
same condition in any and all respects which the purchased lot
was in at the time of the lot being knocked down to the buyer.
In the event of cancellation the buyer shall not be entitled to
claim payment of interest on the purchase price nor shall the
buyer be entitled to claim compensation for any other expenses
or loss incurred, including any possible loss of profit in connection with reselling.
It shall not be possible to state cancellation of a purchase in
pursuance of the above provisions if:
a the description on the day the lot was knocked down to the
buyer was in accordance with the then generally accepted
opinion of scholars and experts;
b the only way of establishing whether the lot was a forgery at
the time of the sale was the implementation of scientific processes, the validity of which was only acknowledged after the
time of the sale, or which would have required a disproportionate amount of cost, or which would have been impossible to carry out without damaging the lot in question.
In addition to the time-limits stated above, all purchases are
subject to the Statute of Limitations stipulated by danish law by
which Bruun Rasmussen is under no circumstance liable for purchases after 5 years from the date of purchase.

§ 9. EXPORT LICENCE
COMMISSION
Applications for an export licence must be made to the Danish Cultural Assets Committee when required in accordance with
current Danish legislation on the protection and preservation of
cultural assets in Denmark. Where such a licence has not been
obtained, the foreign buyer will be informed thereof immediately after the lot has been knocked down to the buyer. Another application will subsequently be sent to the Danish Cultural
Assets Committee by Bruun Rasmussen on behalf of the buyer,
now that the price is known. Should an export licence not be
granted, the Danish Cultural Assets Committee would be obliged
to acquire the purchased lot at the purchase price, and the buyer
would thus not be bound to the purchase.
Bruun Rasmussen undertakes to execute commission bids for
bidders who are unable to be present at the auction. It is a prerequisite that Bruun Rasmussen receives the commissions by letter, fax or telephone 24 hours before the start of the auction for
the bidders’ credit to be checked, if necessary. Bids by the homepage are to be recieved a minimum of 3 hours before the start of
the auction. Bruun Rasmussen is not to be held responsible for
any errors that may occur using this service.
§ 10. DESCRIPTION OF LOTS
All lots are sold in the condition in which they are found when
knocked down and as described in the catalogue and on the
homepage with subsequently published changes and modifications. Description is done according to the best of Bruun Rasmussen’s knowledge and on the cataloguing principles stated.
The lots auctioned are often of some age or of a kind which
makes it possible that they may contain defects, deficiencies, or
may have been subject to restoration or damage not necessarily
stated in the catalogue and on the homepage. Pictures are for
identification only and cannot be used for an evaluation of the
condition of the goods.
Any person who wishes to bid at an auction should therefore satisfy himself of the condition of the lots for which he intends to
bid by personal inspection at the preview held prior to the auction. The description is an indication of the prevailing opinion of
scholars and expert at the time of the sale. If any doubts should

CONDITION REPORTS
Bruun Rasmussen undertakes to provide further information
about the state and condition of the lots if possible. This is
regarded as a service for customers who are unable to make a
personal inspection of the lots at the preview. Bruun Rasmussen
stresses that the information given cannot be used as the basis
for complaints; complaints can only be based on the description.
EXEMPTION FROM VAT
Buyers shall, according to § 2, pay full VAT on lots marked with
an asterisk (*).
No Danish VAT is to be paid when VAT registered companies
from other EU countries buy at Bruun Rasmussen and resell
to private buyers, The private buyer then only has to pay VAT
according to the rules in force in the country where the foreign
company is VAT registered. For further information please consult your local authorities.
The above is an English translation of the Danish version of the
Conditions of Purchase. In case of dispute, only the Danish version
of the present Conditions of Purchase of Bruun Rasmussen is valid.

KOMMISSIONSBUD
COMMISSION BIDS
Det er muligt at afgive kommissionsbud, hvis De ikke selv kan
være til stede på auk­tions­­dagen. Denne service er gratis.
It is possible to leave commission bids if you can not be pre­sent
at the auction yourself. This service is free of charge.
Når De afgiver en kommission, beder De vores kundeservice på
Deres vegne byde op til et af Dem bestemt beløb i hammerslag.
When leaving a commission bid, you are instructing our customer service to bid up to a specified amount on your behalf.
Der kan opstå den situation, at en anden køber allerede har budt
det beløb, som De ønsker at afgive. Er De da villig til at gå et
bud højere eller er De indforstået med at nummeret sælges til
anden side?
The situation can occur that another buyer has already bid the
same as you were prepared to. Are you then willing to bid further? If not the lot will be sold to another buyer.
Ønsker De ikke at byde højere så skriv “Max” ud for beløbet. Er
De i tvivl om hvor højt De vil byde, kan De hæve budet med op
til ca. 15% eller ca. 25%.
Salgsprisen kan blive højere eller lavere end vurderingen, så der
er også mulighed for at købe til under den angivne vurdering.
Vor kun­deservice køber altid så billigt som muligt til Dem, som
havde De selv været tilstede på auktionen.
Alle kommissioner behandles strengt fortroligt.
Kommisionsbud skal være Bruun Rasmussen i hænde senest 24
timer før auktionens start.
If you do not wish to exceed your bid then write “Max”, for
maxi­mum, next to the amount. You can also allow us to raise
your bid by approx. 15% or approx. 25%.
The hammer price may be higher or lower than the estima­ted
price, so it is possible to buy below the estimate. Bruun Rasmussen will always buy at the lowest price possible, as if you yourself had been present at the auction.
All commission bids are strictly confidential.
Commission bids must be submitted no later than 24 hours prior
to the start of the auction.
SÅDAN BYDER DE:
HOW TO MAKE A COMMISSION BID:
Udfyld blanketten kommissionsbud med alle oplysninger.
Complete the commission form with all pertinent information.
Angiv katalognummer.
Indicate the lot number.
Angiv beløbet De ønsker at byde.
Indicate the amount you are prepared to bid.
Er dette Deres absolutte maximum bedes De anføre “Max” i kolonnen.
Should this amount be the absolute maxi­
mum, please write
“Max” in the ap­pro­priate column.
De kan også forhøje Deres bud med henholdsvis ca. 15% eller ca.
25%, ved at ind­ikere dette i kolonnen.
You can also allow us to bid by up to approx. 15% or approx.
25% more by indicating so.
De bedes underskrive kommissionsblanketten og sikre Dem, at
Bruun Rasmussen mod­tager den senest 24 timer før auktionens
start.
Sign the commission form and make sure that Bruun Ras­mussen
receives it 24 hours prior to the start of the auction.
Hvis Deres oplysninger ikke er tilstrækkelige, kan Bruun Ras­
mussen undlade at byde for Dem, ligesom Bruun Rasmussen ikke
kan gøres ansvarlig for fejl ved budgivningen.

BUYER’S STANDARD PREMIUM
30% - BRUGT MOMS
30% AUCTIONEERS’ MARGIN SCHEME
1. januar 1995 trådte nye love i kraft i EU vedrørende
moms ved handel på auktion med brugte varer, kunst­
genstande, samler­objekter og antikviteter, der nu kan
handles til brugt moms.
As of 1 January 1995 new EC regulations came into
effect regarding the sale of secondhand goods, works of
art, collector’s items and antiques; these items may now
be traded under the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme.
Efter de nye regler er det kun auktionsomkostninger, der
skal tillægges moms, og ikke som tidligere varens fulde
pris. I auk­tionsomkostninger er indregnet ikke fradragsberettiget moms.
Under the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme the premium
only is subject to VAT, i.e. the hammer price is exempted
from VAT. The buyer’s premium of 25% will thus henceforth include non-refundable VAT.

betaler derved 24% i auktionsomkostninger.
1. Danish VAT registered buyers may choose to pay
the 24% buyer’s premium + 25% VAT on the total
amount (Full VAT). The buyer may have the total VAT
refunded and thus pays 24% in buyer’s premium only.
2. Momsregistrerede købere i andre EU-lande kan, ved at
anvende deres EU-momsnr., undgå den danske moms
og derved betale 24% i auktionsomkostninger.
2. VAT registered buyers in other EU countries may
avoid Danish VAT by using their VAT registration
number and thereby pay a buyer’s premium of 24%
only.
3. Alle købere med bopæl i et land uden for EU, der
op­fylder de danske toldmyndigheders krav i forbindelse med eksport, betaler derved 24% i auktionsomkostninger (se købskonditioner, §4, Afgiftsfritagelse).

Der bydes og faktureres i danske kroner.
Bids and invoicing are made in DKK.
Ved omregning fra DKK til Euro er anvendt
Nationalbankens officielle valutakurs på
tids­punktet for udarbejdelse af kataloget.
For the conversion from DKK into Euro,
Bruun Rasmussen has used the official rate
of exchange from Denmarks Nationalbank
(the Danish National Bank) at the time of
preparation of the catalogue.
Beløbet i Euro er afrundet til et tal, der
efter Bruun Rasmussens skøn fremtræder
på en præsentabel måde i forhold til
beløbet i DKK.
BEVARINGSTILSTAND
Bruun Rasmussen henleder opmærksom­
heden på, at katalognumrene som
udgangs­punkt ikke er forsynet med oplysninger om tilstand (jvf. købskonditionernes § 10). Vi henviser imidlertid til vores
hjemmeside: www.bruun-rasmussen.dk,
hvor der under det enkelte katalognummer
ofte er oplysninger om bevarings­tilstand,
reparationer o. lign. Er disse oplysninger
ikke tilstrække­lige kan én af afdelingens
sagkyndige kontaktes for yderligere informationer.
256
The amount in Euro is, in Bruun Rasmussen's judgment, roughly adjusted to
presentable figures.
CONDITION
Bruun Rasmussen draws attention to the
fact that, as a rule, no information is
provided regarding the condition of the lots
(cf. conditions of purchase § 10).
However, we refer to our website:
www.bruun-rasmussen.dk where infor­
mation regarding condition, repairs, etc.
can usually be found for the individual lot.
Should this information be insufficient,
further details can be obtained by contacting one of the experts of the department.
