Buying at Auction
The following pages are designed to give you useful information on how to buy at auction. Sotheby's staff as listed at the front of this catalogue under Sales Enquiries and Information will be happy to assist you. If you have not bought at Sotheby's recently, it is important that you read the following information carefully.
Provenance
In certain circumstances, Sotheby's may print in the catalogue the history of ownership of a work of art if such information contributes to scholarship or is otherwise well known and assists in distinguishing the work of art. However, the identity of the seller or previous owners may not be disclosed for a variety of reasons. For example, such information may be excluded to accommodate a seller's request for confidentiality or because the identity of prior owners is unknown given the age of the work of art.
