A 19th century "to be rediscovered" was the aim and the proposal that animated the latest auctions of the Department.
Works previously unknown by the market as well as authentic rediscoveries are the guidelines of the catalogues of the 19th and 20th century Paintings and Sculptures Department.
The 19th and 20th century Paintings and Sculptures department stood out thanks to the sale of relevant properties, such as the historical nucleus of the Bernasconi Collection, whose works, of significant artistic value, enriched the most recent catalogues, leading the department to a record turnover of over € 2.5 million. Many offers came from abroad, showing how the department's proposal has strong international connotations.
The 19th Century: a growing market winning over collectors.
New milestones for the 19th and 20th Century Paintings and Sculptures department, whose two auction sessions on June 25-26, 2024, totaled € 700,000, achieving an 86% sell-through rate and a 193% increase over the estimates.
