[From Foreword] Jacobsen’s Painting and Bronze Price Guide Volume XI furnishes biographical data and actual auction prices for works of art that were sold at public auction galleries from January 1988 to January 1990. These include all types of "easel art" such as paintings, drawings, pastels, watercolors, and charcoals, also included in a separate section are all types of sculpture including contemporary constructions, marbles, other carvings and, of course. Bronzes. Artists from old masters to contemporary are listed. Each section is arranged in alphabetical order by artist, giving if possible, the life dates and country of origin. Then follows a description of the work or its actual title, date of execution if known, medium, place sold, lot number if known, sale date, followed by price paid in US dollars the date of sale is included so that further reference to the auction catalog may be made if necessary.Artists names are listed by the family name not the prefix, in nearly all cases. If the prefix word translates to a definite article (a, an, the) it may be under the prefix: for example El Greco translates to "The Greek." Some names are referred to so often in everyday usage with the prefix first, we left them De Kooning, Willem. Even here there are some inconsistencies, so look for Gogh, Vincent Van. In short, if the artist sold, it's in here, just keep looking. We take great care in the cataloging of each item. In some few cases more care than the auction galleries have taken. Always note the qualifiers following an artist's name.
