Great read
Wonderful book. A bit of Christie’s propaganda but fascinating, quick one page insights into items, their context in history etc

Chanel's suit to Dumfries House, sales at auction via Christie's.
Well done Phaidon!The greatest auction house - Christie's, the great art publisher Phaidon. We are brought a hardback volume, page after page of intriguing items that were auctioned. They are photographed, a page or so a piece, each accompanied by a written blurb of information and detailsA joyful book, a delight, paintings, sculpture, treasures all auctioned by Christie's. We are given insight into a world in which the the greatest galleries and richest patrons can indulge.Chanel's suit and Dumfries House, it's a slight read, annoyingly slight in places. Quality publishing, not a necessary book, yet a necessary purchase.
