Eduard von Niesewand

Eduard von Niesewand was a Government Council (Geh. Regierungsrats) in Mülheim a. Rh. His private collection held 40 old Dutch Masters and 14 modern paintings, among other artworks. In 1886, Jules de Brauwere produced a catalogue entitled “Collection Niesewand: catalogue de tableaux anciens appartenant a M. le Baron Eduard von Niesewand” (https://www.rct.uk/collection/1154549/collection-niesewand-catalogue-de-tableaux-anciens-appartenant-a-m-le-baron).
In 1906, Niesewand auctioned off his collection with the Lempertz auction house. The online catalogue is accessible at: https://katalog.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/titel/67749746
