The sad tale of the late Scheringa Museum of Realist art: a tragical comedy. Read on.
Ten years ago these three paintings of mine were sold by Jamie @jamie.anderson.art to the Scheringa Museum following my first one man show @waterhousedodd in Cork Street.
The museum, the dream child of Dutch banker Dirk Scheringa, included works by Dalí, Freud, De Chirico, Magritte and De Lempicka, and was shortly to move into a large new building at Opmeer in the Netherlands.
Following the collapse of his DSB Bank during the banking crisis, it's main creditor, ABN Amro, seized the entire collection, which had been used as security to raise money for the construction of the magnificent new 38 million euro museum building. "....they came like thieves in the night", said tearful museum staff.
Ownership of the collection then passed from ABM Amro to Deutsche Bank, which decided to sell it to an undisclosed individual for 14 million Euro. This was stopped in 2011 by a court in Amsterdam, which decided that the price was too low. In March 2012, the Dutch part of the collection was bought by Hans Melchers, while the remainder was flogged off and dispersed in a series of hasty sales at Christie’s.
Shortly before, in a separate incident several masked men had threatened staff and visitors with a gun before driving off in a car with a Dalí and the Tamara de Lempicka . The two paintings had then passed to a criminal gang in lieu of an underworld payment. But according to specialist art detective Arthur Brand "this organisation did not want to be found guilty of the destruction or resale of art works," and had contacted him through a go-between, which years later led to their recovery.
The vast and rather beautiful new museum building is alas still quietly decaying and abandoned in a Dutch field somewhere.
Funnily enough, Self Portrait with Machine and Portrait with Grave Goods ended up together in the home of an Australian collector who contacted me as he was curious to know who they were, unaware that he had in fact re-united man and wife!

I’ll just gonna leave this here. All the hate Ellen is receiving is so disgusting. I red some comments on her last IG’s post where some people wished her death. YOU’RE OUT OF MIND SERIOUSLY. LEAVE HER ALONE FOR GOD SAKE. GREY’S IS A 3 BILLION SHOW, DON’T TELL ME THEY DON’T HAVE MONEY. SARAH AND JESSICA WERE ON THE SHOW EVEN WHEN PATRICK SANDRA AND ERIC WERE IN, SO IT’S NOT A PROBLEM OF MONEY AT ALL. #sorrytheoutburst
