Sotheby’s Switzerland is delighted to join the international celebration of Ferdinand Hodler’s oeuvre, with exhibitions being held in Swiss and European museums. Further details of the works to be shown will be announced in due course.

Co-Directors for Swiss Art at Sotheby’s, Stéphanie Schleining and Urs Lanter, commented, “The name Ferdinand Hodler is practically synonymous with the success of our sales of Swiss Art at Sotheby’s. We are proud to have set the world auction record in 2007, which still stands over a decade later, and has allowed us to sell a number of other important works by this seminal Swiss painter, both at auction and privately. We are very pleased to be able to mark the centenary of his death alongside major art institutions, by hosting an exhibition in honour of his life and work.”
