The Private View provided our invited guests with a relaxed atmosphere in which to leisurely peruse the many fine art lots on offer in the two day Summer 2015 Fine Sale.

Guests enjoyed an entertaining talk by our expert Andrew Thomas, who reviewed some of the results from the Spring 2015 Fine Sale held earlier in the year as well as previewing some of the exciting and sometimes unusual lots being offered in the forthcoming sale.

Guests were able to appreciate the varied lots put into the sale by most of our specialist departments while enjoying sparkling wine and canapes on what was a delightful summer's evening in Exeter.

The evening was once again mentioned by attendees on the Twitter social media platform.
