It is on view at Christie’s South Kensington until July 3.
Tom Best, Specialist and Head of Sale said: “We put together this new sale format as a response to the increasingly global demand we have seen for smaller works by these 20th and 21st century artists. This sale format also adds an extra dimension to the week of Impressionist & Modern sales in London, giving clients a new way to add to their collections and the ability to bid from around the globe.”
