The Neuman Collection is a Swedish Private collection including international modern art by some of the twentieth century’s most important artists; Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Fernand Léger and André Masson. The collection presents eleven significant works which illustrate the exquisite taste of one collector;
Bertil Neuman (1921-2011).
The collection includes no less than four important works by the foremost artist of the twentieth century, Pablo Picasso. The highlight of the collection is the oil painting Fillette au béret, a portrait of a young girl wearing a blue beret, painted by Picasso in 1964 and with an estimate of SEK 12.000.000 – 18.000.000 (approx. € 1.250.000 – 1.900.000). A majority of the works in the Neuman Collection, including the above-mentioned painting by Picasso, have originally been sold by Galerie Louise Leiris in Paris, one of the most influential art galleries in modern time.
