About the Item

The Cyril Humphris Collection of European sculpture and Works of Art, Part I and II. Tuesday, January 10, 1995. Sotheby's New York. Sotheby's, Humphris, the London dealer, was retiring. "There were 331 lots, Renaissance, Limoges enamels, 18th-century sculpture, and more. The two-part catalogue (Part I, with a hard cover, for "serious buyers," as dealers like to call the well-heeled; Part II for the common run of mortals). Early in the sale, the London dealer Rainer Zietz paid $255,500 for the rare alabaster "Pietà" done somewhere in Northern Europe in the 1430s. Much later, the silver and bronze bust of Charles II of England now considered to be the work of Francesco Fanelli matched the middle estimate at $442,500. By the end of the second day, the sale had netted about $6 million for the vendor, a hefty amount in the field of objets d'art." NPT Books, a division of Trent Antiques, has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
