Description
Masters Week is a series of auctions that includes Old Master and 19th-Century painting, drawing, and sculpture. The tour will focus on a special auction, Bouguereau and His Circle: Then and Now, featuring works realized and inspired by William Adolphe Bouguereau, including paintings by his wife, Elizabeth Jane Gardner Bouguereau, one of the leading American painters of her day, and contemporary artists working within the realist tradition, including Zachari Logan, Kadir Nelson, and Han-Wu Shen. Highlights from other sales across Masters Week include a recently rediscovered portrait by Bronzino (profiled in the NYTimes), an extraordinary collection of Baroque paintings, and exquisite works on paper.
