Anchored by Henry Moore’s striking King and Queen, this season's 20th and 21st Century Art auction series features major works by some of the most significant and exciting figures in Surrealist, Impressionist, Modern and Contemporary art. Across our exhibitions and auctions, you’ll encounter standout works that define the season — from Gerhard Richter’s Schober (Haybarn) and Abstraktes Bild to Wassily Kandinsky’s Le rond rouge and René Magritte’s Les grâces naturelles.

Alongside these works are exceptional collections including Modern Visionaries: The Roger and Josette Vanthournout Collection, complemented by sculptures in St James’s Square, and Spellbound: The Hegewisch Collection Part II.

We look forward to sharing another remarkable season with you at Christie’s London.
