Sotheby's New York have announced that they will be offering a group of twelve Nothern paintings from the Weindling Collection in February 2026.
According to their Instagram post:
Highlights include two of the earliest still lifes by Pieter Claesz, luminous landscapes by Jan van Goyen and Salomon van Ruysdael, one of the only still lifes by Jan Jansz. den Uyl the Elder in private ownership, and one of the unique large format townscapes by David Teniers the Elder—each a striking example of timeless clarity and composition.
Born in Berlin, [Lester] Weindling fled Europe as a child during the rise of Nazism and eventually settled in New York, where he became a leading real-estate developer. Alongside his career, he quietly built this collection—a lasting connection to the Europe he left behind.
