Art Nouveau Poster Auction…Ooh la la!

by Moi

swannauctionartnouveaupostersMoi eyes are lighting up at the tres chic postcard from Swann Auction Galleries announcing the upcoming auction December 16, 1:30 pm,  of “Rare & Important Art Nouveau Posers”. Swann promises “scarce and seldom seen masterpieces by… Mucha, Toulouse-Lautrec, Chéret, Bonnard and Steinlen.”

I’m not sure I’ll be buying, but I’ll definitely be browsing during the pre-sale exhibition:

  • Saturday, December 12 10am-4pm
  • Monday, December 14 10am-6pm
  • Tuesday, December 15 10am-6pm
  • Wednesday, December 16 10am-noon

These exhibitions are like an art exhibit: and they’re free! Moi learns alot by visiting auction pre-sale exhibitions: there are always specialists on hand to answer questions. Featured will be a color lithograph poster France-Champagne by Pierre Bonnard, circa 1891. swannauctionfrancechampagne

If you’re not going to be in NYC for the auction, check it out online: you can view the catalogue online, and place online bids! Now that’s smart cyber shopping.

Moi tip: If you’d like the poster but its out of your budget, consider purchasing the illustrated catalogue for $35. Or be chic and cheap like Moi and save the promo postcard!
