Memorials Of Christies PDF Download

Excerpt from Memorials of Christie's, Vol. 1: A Record of Art Sales From 1766 to 1896 These two volumes will be found to contain a fairly exhaustive re'sume' of the chief public sales which have been held at Christie's during the long period of nearly a century and a half. The task has been no light one, and if the results are commensurate with the amount of labour and time which it has involved I shall feel at all events that my work has not been in vain.
