http://www.sothebys.com/en/catalogues/ecatalogue.html/2011/western-manuscripts-and-miniatures

129 erlesene Lots, aber nichts auf Deutsch (wenngleich etliches aus Deutschland z.B. Vorbesitz Leander van Ess).

Bei Nr. 107 heißt es peinlicherweise Rottenburg statt Rottenbuch, das sollte bei solchen Preisen nicht vorkommen!

Die Stücke stammen aus der Bergendal-Collection. So ist Lot 28 Bergendal MS. 115

The sale of Western Manuscripts and Miniatures on 5 July is the largest for many years. It includes over a hundred manuscripts from the famous Bergendal Collection, of Toronto, mainly of monastic texts from England, France and Italy. Complete Carolingian and Romanesque manuscripts are almost unobtainable these days: the group includes 22 books from before the thirteenth century, almost 25% of the selection. Here are medieval authors as rare and evocative as Smaragdus of St-Mihiel, Defensor of Ligugé, Anselm of Canterbury (three lots, no less), Bonizo of Sutri, and Alulfus of Tournai.
There are manuscripts from the abbeys of St-Julien in Tours, St-Michel-sur-Meurthe, and the Carmelites in Paris; and from the Cistercians Morimondo and Chiaravalle della Columba; from the abbey of St Bavo in Ghent; from the Dominicans of Augsburg and the church of Warburg; and perhaps from the abbeys of Westminster and Reading. The sale also includes illuminated miniatures from the collection of Robert and Dorothy Senior (1917-1994 and 1930-2009) and books as remarkable as an unrecorded Romanesque illuminated Psalter from Trier, an extraordinary Bohemian Ovid, and the Books of Solomon illuminated for Anne de Polignac (1495-1554).
