AuctionArt Rémy Le Fur – African art – 9 December 2013 – with results list

Description

Lavishly illustrated French auction catalogue from AuctionArt, Rémy Le Fur & Associates, for the sale of African art on 9 December 2013 at Hôtel Drouot in Paris, including the original results sheet with realized prices.

The catalogue documents a specialised auction of African tribal art and presents a diverse selection of masks, sculptures, jewellery and other ceremonial and ethnographic objects from various African cultures and regions.

The individual lots have been extensively photographed in colour and provided with French-language catalogue descriptions. Attention is also paid to cultural origin, material, dimensions, dating and stylistic characteristics, among other things. Where available, additional information regarding the provenance and background of the objects is also provided.

What is special about this copy is the preserved results list detailing the price realised for each sold lot. This allows the item descriptions and images to be directly linked to the auction results achieved at the time. That makes this catalogue not only useful as visual comparison material, but also as historical documentation of the French market for African art in 2013.

AuctionArt, Rémy Le Fur & Associés organised the auction on 9 December 2013 at the Hôtel Drouot, the historic Parisian art auction centre.
