Taking place in the historic premises of Diriyah, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, the home of the At-Turaif UNESCO World Heritage Site, this inaugural auction will feature a variety of artworks by both Saudi Arabian artists and leading names in international art history, as well as showcasing all that luxury encompasses, including Jewelry, Watches, Cars, Handbags and Sport Memorabilia.

Titled Origins, the sale will feature Sotheby’s global offerings for new and seasoned collectors, providing a unique platform for the sale of museum-worthy and historically important examples of the finest craftsmanship by major names in Luxury and Fine Art.

Prior to the auction, all items from the inaugural Origins sale will be showcased in a public exhibition from 1–8 February, in a week-long celebration of luxury, art and culture.

The auction follows Sotheby’s official incorporation in Saudi Arabia at the end of last year, and will be complemented by the opening of an office in Riyadh landmark Al Faisaliah Tower (designed by Norman Foster and famous for being the first skyscraper built in the country). Together, this marks the next step in Sotheby’s continued and long-term commitment to the region.
