Hello Gustav,
I was only reasonably wealthy for a short time, I didn't want to see my children grow up in a rented apartment on a main road, so I bought a house and was therefore constantly forced to sell top pieces from my collection. The problem of a single earner!
All the pieces shown in this exhibition which came from my collection are now in one prominent collection. To answer your question, no, I haven't been able to purchase any comparable pieces since then.
The pieces are shown by the pics.
And here the threads where I have shown them before:
