An energised saleroom saw vast international participation from over 1,701 registered bidders from across 48 countries, demonstrating the trust placed in us by our global collector base. The exceptional prices achieved for iconic works by Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein, as well as the strong results for our rich and varied selection of works by Grayson Perry, Damien Hirst, Banksy and even Albrecht Dürer, highlight the continued demand for our unique curation of high quality Modern and Contemporary Editions.
