...Disappointing Van Dyck. At 8 p.m., Auctioneer Louis J. Marion, his English as Tammany and his French as fractured as ever, took his place behind his rostrum, admitting that he had seldom been more nervous. As cameras flashed, the sale began with a portrait by the 16th century Dutch painter Jan Mostaert. A portrait by Van Dyck went for a disappointing $27,000, which was $53,000 below the Parke-Bernet estimate. On the other hand, a splendid Princess Sibylle of Cleves, by Lucas Cranach the Elder, was bought by Thomas Agnew & Sons of London for $105,000, about twice...

Among the bearded divines from the East were the Orthodox Archbishop of Thyateira in a brocade cape of gold and scarlet, the Metropolitan of Carthage, and the Most Rev. Nikodim, Archbishop of Yaroslavl and Rostov, representing the Patriarch of Moscow. Anglican bishops came from New York, Gibraltar, Amritsar...
...works, few of which had ever been seen by the present generation. Covering the walls almost from floor to ceiling, the paintings ranged in time from a superb 14th century primitive (The Flagellation of Christ) through the works of Rembrandt, Frans Hals, Tintoretto, Vermeer, Fragonard, Rubens and Van Dyck, and on down to 1800. When Paris finally digests this show, another lot from the buried reserves, which som officials estimate to number as many a 2,000 items, will be put on display. And this month 22 new rooms at the Louvre will be opened up, after having been closed...
