Abstract
Works by Blake’s circle and followers had a stronger presence in the 2018 auction season than his own productions. Henry Fuseli’s Vision of Orestes, offered by Christie’s New York in January, was bid a few steps over its high estimate to achieve a hammer price of $175,000 ($218,750 including the buyer’s premium). Another dramatic composition by Fuseli, The Faerie Queene Appears to Prince Arthur, fetched almost three times high estimate at Christie’s London in July, thereby setting a record price for a drawing by the artist.
在2018年的拍卖季中,布莱克的圈子和追随者的作品比他自己的作品更有影响力。亨利·富塞利(Henry Fuseli)的《俄瑞斯特斯的幻象》(Vision of Orestes)今年1月在纽约佳士得拍卖行(Christie’s New York)拍出,成交价比最高估价高出了几步,达到17.5万美元(包括买方佣金在内,成交价为21.8750万美元)。富塞利的另一幅戏剧性作品《仙女女王出现在亚瑟王子面前》(The fairy queen appearance to Prince Arthur)今年7月在伦敦佳士得拍卖行(Christie’s London)拍出了几乎三倍于估价的高价,创下了这位艺术家作品的最高价格纪录。
期刊介绍:
Blake/An Illustrated Quarterly was born as the Blake Newsletter on a mimeograph machine at the University of California, Berkeley in 1967. Edited by Morton D. Paley, the first issue ran to nine pages, was available for a yearly subscription rate of two dollars for four issues, and included the fateful words, "As far as editorial policy is concerned, I think the Newsletter should be just that—not an incipient journal." The production office of the Newsletter relocated to the University of New Mexico when Morris Eaves became co-editor in 1970, and then moved with him in 1986 to its present home at the University of Rochester.
