The Modern Renaissance: Paris & London sales will bring together works from across the major collecting categories in back-to-back relay auctions in Paris and London on 25 March. Sotheby’s is delighted to present works spanning 500 years of art history. From Piero del Pollaiuolo’s arresting 'Portrait of a Youth', through to works by Vincent Van Gogh, Edward Munch, Jean Dubuffet, David Hockney and Banksy, viewers and buyers are taken on a journey that begins with Old Masters, travels through Impressionist and Modern art and arrives in the 21st Century, to be greeted by works from the Contemporary vanguard of our times. The works by this group of artists epitomise the very ethos of a Modern Renaissance; from experimentation, great strides of innovation and seeing the world anew.
