Sotheby’s is thrilled to present the latest edition of London’s Old Masters sale series this December, showcasing an exquisite selection of works spanning from antiquity through the 19th century. Leading the series is our highly anticipated Old Master & 19th Century Paintings Evening Auction on 4 December, which will feature masterpieces such as Sandro Botticelli’s The Virgin and Child Enthroned from the esteemed Loyd Collection—a splendid early work by the artist—as well as a rediscovered painting by the Florentine Mannerist artist Rosso Fiorentino that was once owned by Catherine the Great. Other highlights include an impressive portrait of the Goddard sisters by Thomas Gainsborough as well as Eugène Delacroix’s Hunters Lying in Wait for a Lion, a powerful composition that captures the artist’s vivid encounters in North Africa. The week also features the Ancient Sculpture and Works of Art auction, which includes a Roman Marble Torso of Aphrodite from the esteemed Collection of Aso O. Tavitian.
