TERMS OF AUCTION
Extract from the Rules of Procedure, as of April 2022
The auctions are conducted in accordance with the Rules of Procedure of the Widder Auctions of Kunsthandel Widder GmbH. The exact wording of these rules is available at the auction house and can be downloaded from www.widderauktionen.com.
Estimated prices, starting price, minimum sale price, limit, hammer price
In object descriptions, an upper and lower estimated price is stated in euros. The highest bid is expected within this range. The starting price is also stated online. As a rule, the starting price is the lower estimated price, but it
can be set higher or lower. The auctioneer increases the price by steps of approx. 10%, although it is possible to deviate from this. The highest bid wins, provided that the minimum selling price has been reached. If the seller decides not to sell the object below a fixed price, this is called the minimum sale price or limit. If this is not reached, the sale is considered conditional. Highest bidders are obliged to pay the purchase price within 7 days after invoicing.
Purchase price
The purchase price consists of the highest bid plus the buyer's premium, sales tax and, if applicable, the fee of artists resale rights. The buyer's premium amounts to 28% in case of differential taxation. The sales tax is included in the differential taxation.
In the case of normal taxation (marked ° ), a premium of 24% is added to the highest bid. For paintings, watercolors, drawings and sculptures, the statutory sales tax of 13% is added to the sum of the highest bid and the buyer's premium, for all other objects 20%.
Resale Right
Items marked * are subject to the resale right. This will be charged in the form of a surcharge on the highest bid. It only applies to highest bids over € 2,499.99 and is staggered: for the first € 50,000 4% will be charged. Thereafter, for each additional €150,000, 3% and 1% respectively, and for €500,000 and above, 0.25%. The maximum resale right charge is 12,500 €.

The auction house vouches for the authenticity of the object to the buyer within two years and guarantees that the object is indeed by the named artist.

The German painter and graphic artist Georg Philipp Wörlen attended the school school in Nuremberg and learned from a church painter. Then he worked as a restorer in the Altheimer studio in Regensburg. In 1914 he moved to Marnheim as a secondary school teacher. His son Hanns Egon Wörlen was born during his front mission in the First World War. Georg Philipp Wörlen was spilled and wounded twice; Shortly before the end of the war, he was captured in British. There he met Franz Bronstert and Fritz Fuhrken, with whom he later founded the "rock". During this time, Wörlen found expressionism and cubism. After his return from captivity, Wörlen moved to Passau with his family and became art teacher at the Leopoldinum high school. Together with Franz Bronstert, Fritz Fuhrken and Reinhard Hilker, he founded the artist group "Der Fels", which organized over 30 exhibitions between 1920 and 1927. Carry Hauser joined this group a little later. The friendship between Wörlen and Hauser broke up around 1937 for political reasons.
