Kelly Troester and Cary Leibowitz, Deputy Chairmen and Co-Heads of Editions, said, “The market for prints and multiples is stronger than ever, evidenced by the record-breaking year we had in 2022, with momentum continuing into our first few sales of the season. We’re now proud to announce one of the most ambitious sales of the category Phillips has ever hosted to date, featuring nearly 450 works of art. The three days of sales run the gamut in terms of the true breadth of 20th and 21st century editions making from Modern icons such as Miró and Matisse to Contemporary titans Johns and Roy Lichtenstein. We are also honored to have been entrusted with such significant esteemed private collections, with the April sale offering Property from the Collection of Rosa and Aaron Esman. Their importance in the field cannot be overstated and the collection they acquired over their seven decades together is truly remarkable. We look forward to sharing it with the collecting community in its dedicated sale session on 18 April.”
