The first Sotheby’s location in Saudi Arabia brings with it the kingdom’s inaugural international auction, taking place in historic Diriyah, home to a UNESCO heritage site. Titled ‘Origins’, the sale on 8 February 2025 will highlight artworks by both Saudi Arabian artists and leading names in the art world alongside the best of luxury—watches, cars, handbags and sports memorabilia. A public exhibition will take place before the auction from 1–8 February, in a week-long celebration of luxury, art and culture. Our first Sotheby’s office in the kingdom will also open in Riyadh’s Al Faisaliah Tower (designed by Norman Foster and famous for being the first skyscraper built in the country). Stay tuned for more

With almost 700 lots, the Château La Mission Haut-Brion | Celebrating 40 Vintages by Domaine Clarence Dillon auction comprises wines directly sourced from the cellars of Château La Mission Haut-Brion in Bordeaux and celebrates 40 vintages produced under the ownership of the Dillon family, who acquired the estate in 1983. “The exceptionally rare white wines of La Clarté de Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc are now known and appreciated for their uniqueness and complexity, the world over,” says HRH Prince Robert of Luxembourg. “Our second red wine; La Chapelle de La Mission Haut-Brion, has become one of the most dependable ambassadors for our estates while being lauded as one of the finest red wines produced in Bordeaux.” Discover more from the sale: https://bit.ly/4hcJSHr

It was a white-glove (or "gant blanc") sale at #SothebysParis today for ‘Surrealism and its Legacy.’ Kicking off the inaugural auctions at our new Paris headquarters, lively bidding pushed all 26 lots to total €23M. In keeping with tradition, auctioneer Aurélie Vandevoorde was presented with a set of white gloves to commemorate the 100% sell-through achievement.

"The Art of Divorce" was the theme of the first of a new series of thought leadership events, hosted by Sotheby's in London last night. My job as chair was, frankly, made easy by the trio of experts on the panel - Mark Harper, Nicola Wallace and Rachel Reilly - who helped to analyze some of the complicated legal, tactical and valuation questions that arise, in the context of a divorce, when art or other valuable property is in the mix. The next event in this series will have a transatlantic flavo(u)r, as we examine art in the context of US/UK families and their estate planning, on a date early in 2025 TBC. My thanks to Mark, Nicola and Rachel and to everyone who attended last night.
