BGUK_3608311 - Sotheby’s will stage a landmark exhibition in London ( free to view 10-23 June ) and two sales of masterpieces from the renowned Lewis Collection.

Assembled over decades by Joe Lewis and his daughter Vivienne, many of the works in the collection have been exhibited in major museums across the globe – a testament to their exceptional art historical significance – and many have not been seen on the open market for decades, if at all.
