More than 250 years ago, the major auction houses Sotheby's and Christie's began their history with book auctions. We decided that our first auction would also be a book auction. Oh these ambitions and plans... What of them will be realized, only time will tell.
For this auction, we have selected books from several Collectors' libraries. Some books came to us from Yekaterinburg, some from St. Petersburg, and some we found in old Moscow apartments.
We have a very special attitude to books, especially art books, as we work with them every day in attribution and fact-checking, etc. We believe that "book therapy" can help to recover the strength.
We look forward to seeing you at our book auction!
All books can be export from Russia. Please send us an email if you have any questions re Shipping from Russia.
Please note that the date is postponed to May, 19 2021
