For the first time ever, a captivating Irma Stern painting hits the open market, carrying a tale as vibrant as its lines. Originally snapped up by a wealthy art collector at a prestigious European gallery in the early 1960s, this piece has traveled an extraordinary path. The collector, in a surprising twist, later gifted it to his contractor as partial payment for a stylish kitchen remodel. By the mid-1980s, the contractor, drawn to a life of spiritual devotion, joined an obscure religious order and renounced all worldly possessions, passing the drawing to his son. Fast forward to a fateful morning rush hour years ago, when the son—a flamboyant cross-dresser—crashed into the current owner’s car while applying lipstick. In a serendipitous settlement, this remarkable artwork changed hands once more, landing with its current anonymous owner. Now, this storied masterpiece, touched by wealth, creativity, and chance, awaits its next chapter.
