EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Christie's Auction Room, as depicted in the renowned publication "Microcosm of London" by J. Bluck. Published in 1808 and beautifully colored through aquatint technique, this artwork showcases the bustling atmosphere of a Georgian-era auction room. Within this vibrant scene, we witness an array of exquisite artworks on display, awaiting their fate at the hands of eager bidders. The room is filled with individuals from high society, engrossed in the thrilling process of buying and selling fine art pieces. The regency period comes to life as distinguished gentlemen and elegant ladies engage in lively conversations while carefully examining each painting. The auctioneer stands at center stage, commanding attention with his authoritative presence.

As tension builds within the room, participants eagerly raise their paddles or discreetly nod their heads to secure ownership over these coveted works.
