We are delighted to present our major Modern British Art auction as part of Sotheby's Modern &amp; Contemporary Marquee Week in London this summer. The auction is led by an exceptional group of works from the Beaverbrook Art Gallery in Canada, featuring a rare Surrealist masterpiece by Paul Nash among others. The sale brings together a rich selection of paintings, sculpture, ceramics and works on paper by leading British artists of the 20th century, many emerging from long held private collections or appearing at auction for the first time. We shall also be offering British highlights within Sotheby’s
