The last big auction for 2015 is on the horizon: Menzies offer 164 lots in their fine art auction on 10 December in Sydney.
The viewing in Sydney is on from 4 to 9 December at 12 Todman Avenue, Kensington. We’ll be attending the auction and would be delighted to help you secure an artwork with care, astute analysis and due diligence.
With artworks priced from $1,500, you might even find an art bargain for Christmas.
David hasn’t restricted himself, and picked his favourites as he does. To see all information on all works on offer, visit the Menzies website.
