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

Breeding Simmental cattle was a passion of Peggy Rockefeller, who believed deeply in the preservation of agriculture and of farmland. In 1992 David and Peggy Rockefeller put almost 3,000 acres of their Hudson Valley cattle-raising properties into a land trust.

The Dutch East India Co. sent Delft cows to China to be copied in 1746, and in 1747 requested, "Cows, each pair with the heads facing each other, white grounds some with brown....according to sample." See W.R. Sargent, op. cit., p. 228.
