C raving an outdoor adventure? Look no further than Sotheby’s sale of European Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture. Transport yourself from the comfort of your own home to sweeping landscapes and bustling cities, as seen through the eyes of 19th Century artists. Inspired by the scenery outside their windows, views range from the Gothic architecture of Paris’s Notre Dame to the quiet back canals of Venice, from the snowy peaks of Dartmoor to the sun-dappled riverside in Silkeborg, Denmark and the bustling shores of Lake Lugano. Scroll ahead to experience the world through an artist’s eyes – perhaps you can stroll through the streets of Paris or crest a mountain along the way.
