L’asta della collezione Jan van Waning di cimeli reali

Kings and emperors, depicted on various objects often serve a commemorative occasion: a marriage, a birth or state visit. Yet, some show a war or demise of a monarchy. This diverse collection of Royal Memorabilia was brought together by Jan van Waning. Traditionally, kings and emperors are depicted on prints, paintings, coins and tokens. But there are many more ways to display the king or queen: portraits or statuettes in porcelain, crystal, bronze, silver and gold for example. Nowadays crowned heads even adorn packages of consumer items such as alcoholic beverages, biscuit tins, tea towels and teaspoons. Such objects often serve to commemorate happy occasions: a marriage, a birth, a trip or a state visit. However some of these objects might literally show the other side of the coin. The lots offered in “The Jan van Waning Collection of Royal Memorabilia” auction give a lively picture of hundreds of years of European royal houses and have been on display in the 2012 Rotterdam sales exhibition “Everything for the Crown”.
