Special Notice
Artist's Resale Right ("Droit de Suite"). Artist's Resale Right Regulations 2006 apply to this lot, the buyer agrees to pay us an amount equal to the resale royalty provided for in those Regulations, and we undertake to the buyer to pay such amount to the artist's collection agent.
On occasion, Christie’s has a direct financial interest in
the outcome of the sale of certain lots consigned for sale.
This will usually be where it has guaranteed to the Seller
that whatever the outcome of the auction, the Seller will
receive a minimum sale price for the work. This is known
as a minimum price guarantee. Where Christie’s holds
such financial interest we identify such lots with the
symbol º next to the lot number.
This lot has been imported from outside of the UK for sale and placed under the Temporary Admission regime. Import VAT is payable at 5% on the hammer price. VAT at 20% will be added to the buyer’s premium but will not be shown separately on our invoice.
