Menzies’ next auction of important Australian and International Fine Art offers many treats on 23 June in Sydney. It is worth at least a peruse online at the Menzies website.
Just before the long weekend, David wanted to share his favourite 20 works with you from a total of 140 lots on offer with expectations of an 11 million dollar sale.
And of course he welcomes your comments and enquiries on these or any of the other paintings in the Menzies catalogue. |
