My father, Andres Laszlo Senior put together two collections of "popular Spanish art", and he exhibited them for the last time in 1969 (I think). As he died 15 years later, I (Andres Laszlo Junior) inherited them, and apart from making sure that they do not fall to pieces (deteriorate more than necessary), I have done nothing with them. Whereas the other collection (wooden sculptures) has been authenticated by the best, the glass paintings are more a case of "what you see is what you get" but as these were all collected in the 1940s-1950s (maybe also 1960s) there is no reason to suspect foul play. As I unpacked them, I have broken a few, some have a bit of paint missing, and some might not have an original/very old frame. However, what I can say with certainty is that these pictures are well-chosen, and sort of "the best of the best" of what my father came across. There is a catalog but to what extent these paintings occur in these, I cannot tell.

I started collecting Swedish art glass as a way to become well enough off to venture out on an all-the-things-a-ma-should-have-done-project, but halfway through the project, I was captured by the beauty of Swedish Crystal, and I even wrote a book about it (Svenskt Konstglas). It was fun when I tried to challenge Birgitta, the biggest actor on the market, by obsessively pursuing my desire to create an excellent Orrefors collection during the 1980s. Of course, I failed – she was a billionaire, and I was a pauper, at least relatively speaking – but I still managed to put together a seriously good collection. However, I felt sad the day that I realized that I would probably never be able to afford to complete my collection, donate it to Moderna Museet, and maybe get an “Andres Laszlo, Jr., Collection room” named after me; something I believe my father would have approved of and appreciated (and even been a wee bit jealous of). Though I love Swedish art glass, especially Orrefors 1920 - 1940, I have started to sell off my collection.
“The Modernist Ravenna” from 1953 represents a deviation from traditional Ravenna pattern and form. In a pattern, it is modernistic rather than of the time/traditional, and the opaque layer of white glass is, if not unique, very rare. In shape it is slicker, smoother, and more “internationally modernistic” than what was common at the time, especially in Sweden; it very much departs from the traditional Swedish "form language" of the early 50s, and it thus so in very interesting ways. This boat shape was common among the earliest Ravennas, and it may be in these early boat shapes - semi-figurative motif, with a clear base and a matching rim - that Ravennas reached itʼs highest level. The opaque outer layer is very unusual, note the rim of clear glass that appears orange as it reflects the color of the background. When I - in my books - talk about the best Ravennas combining technique and artistry to read world-class, this is the sort of object I think of. More
This Thick Graal from 1948, if "it" really is from 1948, represents one of the few times somebody managed to sneak a design past Edward Hald and into the “Graal studio”. However, as this piece (i) Was purchased together with two Ariel vases from 1939 and (ii) Looks much more like something from before the war than after, it is likely to be one of rather few "cartridges"/"ämnen" that survived the war so as later to be blown into something. I.e., this is probably a pre-war design completed (or signed) in 1948. Strangely, Öhrström was much more likely to be inspired by Picasso in his very limited Graal-designs, than in his much more numerous Ariel designs - maybe he used Thick Graal for experimentation... In this Thick Graal, Öhrström most certainly got things right, and had it only been a size or two larger, it would most definitely have been a best-Graal contender. More
C’est insensé, et si cela ne brise pas notre logique, cela provoque au moins une désagréable dissonance. Et cependant c’est cette convention arbitraire qui nous fournit, paradoxalement, notre titre, car le caractère du « Primitif » est de ne dire que l’essentiel, sans rechercher les effets de perspective, de construction, de réalisme anatomique, etc...
La Renaissance, dans sa plénitude, n’a jamais atteint l’Espagne. A part la peinture, son influence dans la pensée, l’architecture et surtout dans la sculpture est restée très limitée. Le baroque est venu, presque sans transition, succéder aux arts médiévaux. Voilà pourquoi les auteurs de cette collection, artisans, sculpteurs anonymes, bergers, religieux et religieuses, restèrent primitifs esthétiquement parlant pendent un millénaire.
On peut constater les différentes influences subies pendant ces siècles, y compris même celles de la lointaine Flandre. Mais la véritable base, la source, restera et reste la conception primitive aussi bien au sens spirituel qu’historique.
Qu’il nous soit pardonne se, pour certaines pièces, il se trouve quelque erreur dans l’appréciation de l’époque. Ave l’aide de Maria Luisa Gomez Moreno, la plus haute autorité espagnole en ce domaine que nous tenons à remercier pour son aide si précieuse, nous avons fait pour les mieux. Mais certaines pièces, notamment celles de Galice, ou, au XVIe encore, le style roman dominait toujours l’esprit de plusieurs sculpteurs, nous laissent dans l’expectative, d’autant plus qu’elles furent repeintes au cours des deux derniers siècles.

My father, Andres Laszlo Sr. was an avid collector. However, unlike me, he had the good sense to exhibit his collections and occasionally sell a piece or two, something I have failed miserably in, resulting in that I now can no longer afford to keep them. The pieces displayed below are all listed in the last exhibition - 1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo - at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville 1969 in Paris.
This, as far as I know, was the last time the collection was shown to the public. I know for certain that they have been exhibited in New York, Anesi (France), and Paris, i.e., on three continents, but as it was once my father's main income, there must have been many other places. There are copies of the 1969 catalog and two old catalogs. You can download the French catalog here.
In the catalog, you can find information about height, age, and where the piece was bought (i.e., not necessarily from where it originates). Below you can see slideshows of some of the most interesting pieces:
Time has, unfortunately, had its way with this charming old sculpture. It has number "2" in the exhibition catalog" 1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. Images
It could well be that this piece, which had number "3" in the 1969 catalog, has been incorrectly attributed, I believe, and many have suggested that this is an early "Virgin en Majesté". Whether or not, this exquisite old piece had number "2" in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. Images
Okay, so it might not be totally free from blemishes, but then several of the apostles are said to have been seriously badly treated, which I hope shall make this sort of ok. This seriously hard-done-by apostle had number "7" in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. Images
This is an absolutely amazing sculpture. It's in an absolutely unbelievably good state. Of course, I cannot say that it was never, like for instance in the 15th century, restored. However, I can tell you that it looks absolutely fantastic and the horse is definitely out of this world. This rider had number "9" in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris where this piece is depicted on page 8. Images
Saint Jaques had number "10" in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris where this piece is depicted on page 8. This piece has been totally restored. Images
This sculpture, that has the number 12 (or possibly 17) in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris where it was the (joint) priciest at $10,000. It is my favorite piece and to me so appealing that a line from the New Testament comes to mind: "Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian". Images
This sculpture, which has the number 46 in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. Images
This sculpture, which has the number 47 in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. Images
This sculpture, that has the number 123 in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. The painting is excellent. Images
This sculpture, which has an early number in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. In the catalog, this has been described as St. Magdalen but others have suggested that it is the Virgin. Images
This sculpture, which has the number 21 in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. This Saint Sebastian is not in very good shape and made from very lightweight wood. Maybe Southamerican, despite the "Spanish" shorts... Images
This sculpture, which has the number 24 in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. The Handcarved Wooden Figure is a lovely depiction of a Saint. He has beautiful long hair, so maybe it is actually a Madonna. It is beautifully carved and has a beautiful Patina. He is a typical example of Spanish Gothic Sculptures and dates back to circa 1320-1380. The figure was most likely carved in Catalonia in Spain. About 50 years ago - when this sculpture was displayed amongst the former owner's gallery exhibits - the late Spanish Art History Specialist Maria Luisa Gomez Moreno validated it. Images
This sculpture, which has the number 19 in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. The Handcarved Wooden Figure is a superb depiction of Saint Sebastian. As most often he is shown standing constrained on a tree with his hands tied behind his back while wearing only a small cloth around his hip. He has beautiful long golden hair and has been carved out of a single piece of hardwood. While the Carving is conducted magnificently, his Polychrome finish is simply stunning. The figure is a typical example of French / Spanish Gothic Sculptures with an early Italian Renaissance influence. The sculpture dates back to circa 1420-1470. The figure was most likely carved in Southern France or Catalonia. About 50 years ago - when this sculpture was displayed amongst the former owner's gallery exhibits - the late Spanish Art History Specialist Maria Luisa Gomez Moreno validated the Sebastian (this is one of the most attractive pieces of the collection but unfortunately the photos don't do it justice). Images
This sculpture, which has the number 24? in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. This "St. Michael" is hard to describe: its composition is excellent, and it comes across as quite dark. Images
This sculpture, which has the number 19 in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. This polychrome "Virgin and Child" is the oldest polychrome (well, traces of paint can be found on older). Images
This sculpture, which has the number 32 in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. One of my favorites. Images

Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. The Handcarved Wooden Figure is a beautiful depiction of a Bishop. Most likely St. Blaise or St. Nicholas is holding an episcopal crozier in his one hand. He is beautifully carved, has striking glass eyes and a stunning Polychrome finish. A very typical representation of Spanish / Italian High Baroque sculptures dating to the first half of the 18th Century. The figure was most likely carved in Spain or Italy. About 50 years ago - when this sculpture was displayed amongst the former owners' gallery exhibits - the late Spanish Art History Specialist Maria Luisa Gomez Moreno validated it. Images
This sculpture, which has the number 22 in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. The Handcarved Wooden Figure is a lovely depiction of Madonna - Jesus' Mother - during the Annunciation to the Blessed Virgin Mary. She wears the typical red and blue clothes while the ark angel Gabriel announces to her that she would conceive and become the mother of Jesus, the Son of God. Mary has a surprised look on her face and holds her right hand on her chest. She is beautifully carved and has a stunning Polychrome finish. She is a typical example of Spanish Naive Renaissance Sculptures with late Gothic influences and dated back to circa 1430-1490. The figure was most likely carved in Castile in Spain. About 50 years ago - when this sculpture was displayed amongst the former owner's gallery exhibits - the late Spanish Art History Specialist Maria Luisa Gomez Moreno validated the Virgin. Images
This sculpture, which has the number 55 in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. The Handcarved Wooden Figure is a typical Spanish Folk Art depiction of Saint Anthony of Padua / Anthony of Lisbon. While holding a stick in his right hand Antonio is holding a Bible and the Christ Child in his right hand. Both figures are beautifully carved and have a stunning Polychrome finish. A very typical representation of Spanish Folk Art sculptures dating to circa 1620-1660. The figure was most likely carved in Nothern Spain. About 50 years ago - when this sculpture was displayed amongst the former owner's gallery exhibits - the late Spanish Art History Specialist Maria Luisa Gomez Moreno validated the Statue. Images
This sculpture, which has the number 126 in the exhibition catalog "1000 ans de sculpture primitive Espagnole/collection A. Laszlo when it was last exhibited at Galerie Jean-Francois Apesteguy, Deauville, 1969 in Paris. The Handcarved Wooden Figure is a typical Spanish Folk Art depiction of Saint Roch. While wearing the traditional clothes and stick of a Pilgrim, Roch's thigh is wounded. The wound stands for the Saints plague wound and the dog to his side came to him to supply him with bread and lick his wounds. Both figures are beautifully carved and have a stunning Polychrome finish. A very typical representation of Spanish Folk Art sculptures dating to circa 1820-1860. The figure was most likely carved in Central Spain.

175 snails, and yet not four! He will become a collector.
Jenny Aspenwall Bradley
Senior was a true collector, in the sense that he enjoyed collecting for the sake of it, and he put together collections of all the four series of Goya's engravings - Los Caprichos, Los Desastres de la Guerra, Los Proverbios, and La Tauromaquia - as well as collections of "1000 Years of Naive Spanish Sculptures", and one of Spanish religious glass-paintings, the latter two presented below. Collecting can be fun, and Senior radiated with joy as he told me how he had been sneaking around Tangiers at night, pulling down bullfighting posters that in reality were La Tauromaquia engravings. I had a lot of fun as a collector as well - Senior's literary agent said the above about me as Senior proudly declared that I had started to collect snails - but as this collecting-thing was about to get the better of me, a friend told me "Andres, you are becoming a crook!" and that sort of jolted me out of my passion.
The catalog (in translation) was titled "1000 Years of Primitive Spanish Sculptures"/The Andres Laszlo Collection" and can be viewed here. The collection has been "authenticated" by the then leading authority in the field, Maria Luisa Gomez Moreno (my father arranged that) and later by the chief antiquarian at the Louvre in Paris (I did that around 1990). There were other catalogs, but these have been lost, so if you have one, please make contact. An evaluation of the collection from 1969 is available. As you can see on this website, I am about to start promoting my and my father's texts, and I am eager to the collection in order to finance this. Read More
SPANISH SCULPTURES
The sculptures here presented were last shown to the public in 1969. I, Andres Laszlo Jr., inherited them in 1985 together with a collection of glass paintings. I have since then sold the collection off "from below," so that today I am left with the 30 or so most attractive pieces, apart from 4 medieval polychrome Virgins. The tallas have been exhibited all over Europe, in Canada, and in the United States. The photo shows my father explaining something about the glass paintings to Juan Miro. These (45 or so) glass-paintings from 17th/18th Century) also are included in the collection). In 1969 the collection (131 pieces) was exhibited on "Galeri Jean-Francois Apesteguy Deauville". Today I have sold "the 100 least attractive" on Alcala Auctions in Madrid, and I am looking for a way to sell the remaining (the quality-part) together with the glass paintings. Below most of them are presented.
SWEDISH CRYSTAL
I started collecting Swedish art glass as a way to become well-enough off to venture out on an all-the-things-a-man-should-have-done-project, but half way though the project, I was captured by the beauty of Swedish Crystal, and I even wrote a book about it (Svenskt Konstglas). It was fun when I tried to challenge Birgitta, the biggest actor on the market, by obsessively pursuing my desire to put together an excellent Orrefors collection during the 1980s. Of course, I failed – she was a billionaire, and I was a pauper, at least relatively speaking – but I still managed to put together a pretty good collection. However, I felt sad the day that I realized that I would probably never be able to afford to complete my collection, donate it to "Moderna Museet", and maybe get an “Andres Laszlo, Jr., Collection room” named after me; something I believe my father would have approved of and appreciated (and even have been a wee bit jealous of). Though I love Swedish art glass, especially Orrefors 1920 - 1940, I have started to sell off my collection, though I have so far managed to keep the best pieces. Read More
GLASSPAINTINGS
The art of painting glass paintings has probably existed for nearly as long as glass panes have existed, which in the case of Spain brings it back to and past the middle of the second millennia. It was a trade (or, at its best, maybe a profession) that more often than not would call for an artist/artisan with an itinerant spirit because the painting of glass-paintings was strongly associated with the traveling artisans, and the chosen motifs were equally associated not only with religion but also with the naive/popular tradition of art that for nearly a millennia (early on, especially as sculptures) existed alongside more the more "legitimate" traditions, aligning themselves with mainstream European art styles.
