One of the top lots in the upcoming Old Master Paintings auction at Lempertz in Cologne is the following Self Portrait in a Mirror by Jan Lievens. The catalogue note makes for an interesting read and discusses the varying scholarly opinions over the years which has been put to bed in part by an early dendrochronology result.
The painting will be offered on 16th May 2024 carrying an estimate of €120,000 - €150,000.
