Discover exceptional Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite and British Impressionist art at auction at Christie’s.

Christie's Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite and British Impressionist Art auctions comprise a wide range of styles and subject matter, from the mid-19th to mid-20th century.

As market leaders in this field for over two decades, we are dedicated to sourcing and selling works of the greatest provenance and academic importance. We currently hold a number of world-record prices for artists within this category, including those for Sir John Everett Millais, Sir Edward Burne-Jones and Frederic, Lord Leighton.

Our biannual auctions attract a global audience of collectors, demonstrating the growing demand for works from this period. Our London auction of the Setton Collection in December 2020 saw many pictures double their pre-sale estimates and achieve world records owing to lively international bidding.

Please do not hesitate to contact us for a free and confidential valuation of your Victorian, Pre-Raphaelite and British Impressionist art, whether for auction or private sale, or to simply discuss the market.
