    DUTCH GOLDEN AGE WORKS AT SOTHEBY’S

    Tuesday, April 23rd, 2019

    Works from the SOR Rusche collection, including this landscape with a view of Leiden, will come up at Sotheby’s Old Masters May sale on May 8. More will feature in an online sale on May 10, at Sotheby’s Old Masters day sale in London on July 4 and in another online auction next October.

    Spurred by the ethos ‘the best of the smallest’, four generations of the Rusche family built a collection of works by artists, many of whom, despite being held in high esteem in their day, were subsequently overshadowed by some of the biggest names in art history. A total of 225 works are to be sold across various auctions at Sotheby’s thisyear.

    Anthonie Jansz. van der Croos, Landscape with a view of Leiden £20,000 – 30,000
