Two central pillars of VAN HAM are 19th-century art and Impressionism, as well as our proven expertise in building and developing collections.
The present selection of works, entrusted to us by a collector from the region, combines these two focal points in an exemplary manner: On the one hand, VAN HAM is helping to set new standards for building and restructuring high-quality collections. On the other hand, the auction house is giving new collectors the opportunity to expand their collections with important works by some of the artists we consider most significant from this era.
Works by renowned artists Peder Mørk Mønsted, Friedrich Kallmorgen, Alexander Koester, Hans Thoma and Max Clarenbach are available for sale - all of whom VAN HAM has successfully represented on the art market since its foundation in 1959. Particularly noteworthy is VAN HAM's commitment to the works of Friedrich Kallmorgen, former professor at the academies in Karlsruhe and Berlin: Since 2020, the auction house has successfully sold around 100 paintings and numerous drawings and etchings by the artist worldwide - an unprecedented record in the auction industry. This continuous presence on the market has contributed significantly to the stable price development and growing appreciation of his works. A key milestone was the marketing of the monographic collection of Hamburg merchant Rolf Kaletta, who entrusted VAN HAM with the sale of a significant part of his important Kallmorgen collection. With its in-depth expertise and profound understanding of Kallmorgen's work, VAN HAM has made a name for itself as the leading authority on this painter.
Since 1959, VAN HAM has successfully sold numerous works by other artists from this collection year after year, establishing itself as an authoritative reference for research, sales and mediation in 19th-century painting.
