Old Master Drawings

The past few years have witnessed a marked increase in demand for 19th century drawings. The recent sale of an early study of a tree by Caspar David Friedrich – rediscovered by Koller’s specialists in a Swiss collection – not only enriched the collection of an art lover, but also the current scholarship on this important German Romantic artist.
