AUCTION DETAILS
The collections at Burg Marquartstein reveal the extent of the dealing and collecting of several generations of the Bernheimer family. A Bavarian castle nestled in a valley between Munich and Salzburg with breathtaking Alpine views, Burg Marquarstein was furnished and decorated by Konrad O. Bernheimer with the existing family collection as well as many later personal acquisitions. Highlights such as the sculpture collection, formerly at the Italian Courtyard at Palais Bernheimer, and the contents of the castle’s captivating attics, featuring pieces that were once part or a product of the firm’s workshops, are only a part of the remarkable history of the great Bernheimer dynasty.
Please note that lots with a low estimate below or equal to £4,000 will be sold without a reserve price. These lots will be marked with a □ symbol.
