The art world was abuzz on Tuesday night when one of the largest collections of works of the great South African artist Irma Stern came under the hammer.

Strauss & Co. hosted the single-artist sale of 140 works, including pencils, pen and ink, watercolours and rare oil paintings of the master. More than 5 000 from around the globe joined in the online and in-person auction in Cape Town.Irma Stern is viewed as the leading figure in South African art historically. The ‘Irma Stern Time Line’ auction, included works from the Irma Stern Trust Collection and other properties.

While she was South African, experts say her efforts to see the world makes her work engaging and ever more popular. Stern often painted women, and, Partridge says, not for the male gaze, but rather it was pictured by a woman for women. She also painted subjects vastly different to her own world.
