Mauritshuis acquires Savery still life
March 12 2016
Picture: Colnaghi
One always has to be wary of first day sale announcements at art fairs, for it helps to take along a few sold pictures to unveil to the press and massed crowds. Red dots on a stand help build momentum. That said, things seem to have got off to a positive start at Maastricht this year, from what I've heard. Colnaghi announced the sale of the above 1615 Still Life of Flowers by Roeland Savery to the Mauritshuis for €6.5m. More here.
