Sotheby's
Autor Robert Laceyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 feb 1999
Stimulating and entertaining, Sotheby’s brings to life the personalities and shrewd business sense operating behind the glitz and glamour of the world’s oldest and richest auction house. Reporting from within on famous sales of the recent past, and charting the impact of a succession of clever and colorful entrepreneurs who have known how to sniff out the deals of the moment, Robert Lacey brilliantly reveals how Sotheby’s responds to a much greater need than that of connoisseurs buying works of art—the bidding for class.

Recenzii
'This is no on-your-knees, aren't they wonderful corporate biography. It's a well-researched, largely accurate, acute, sometimes very funny analysis of a company which steps from scandal and hot water into the sunlight of success every month of the year' Godfrey Barker, LITERARY REVIEW' 'Written by the same old pacy, racy Lacey familiar to us from his royal books ... his talent for winkling out piquant detail is at its best' Bevis Hillier, SPECATOR '[This is] no corporate biography byt a pacy, racy book on the auction house and its characters.' ANTIQUES TRADE GAZETTE 'This is about as readable an introduction to the guiles of modern auctioneering, including its sharper practices, as you are likely to find.' ART REVIEW 'Pacy and well-reseached.' COUNTRY LIFE
