awful lot of garbage in this auction, I think auction houses are getting very lazy with how they curate these sales. Got to say I agree, what a very weird selection to put together. Like a massive "stew" of prints, just throw whatever leftovers they had in there. Bambi FFS. Feels like they have three different sales all jammed together. Makes no sense and each one undermines the other. |

Thatโs what a large prints and multiples sale is usually like.

Maybe now, but never was. Bonhams have been dropping their standards a while...there is an eye-watering amount of posters in this sale - ie not prints/editions. Feels like I'm scrolling through a Tate Ward Tats sale.

With such a clear vision of what makes a successful auction sale, you must surely run your own international auction house? It's a wonder how Bonhams have survived these 200 odd years when they clearly don't know what they're doing. You should send them your CV along with a business plan. They'd probably offer you a generous renumeration package to retain your invaluable advice.
