注意事项
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. This is a lot where Christie’s holds a direct financial guarantee interest.

拍品专文

Barbara Woolworth Hutton (1912-1979) was the only daughter of Franklyn Laws Hutton, co-founder of E. F. Hutton & Company, the investment banking and brokerage firm. She was also a granddaughter to Frank W. Woolworth, the founder of the successful five-and-dime stores, and niece by marriage to Marjorie Merriweather Post. Dubbed 'the poor little rich girl', Hutton lead a sad but extravagant life, marrying seven times and squandering the nearly $50 million she inherited on her 21st birthday; she was on the verge of bankruptcy at her death. Her assets were liquidated in 1972, much of it sold privately or at auction.
