We specialise in the sale of Australian & International Art, holding three premium auctions each year. These sales comprise paintings & sculpture, indigenous works, photography, etchings & other graphics. Artists regularly represented in these sales include David & Arthur Boyd, Pro Hart, Brett Whiteley, Norman Lindsay, John Coburn, Ray Crooke, Robert Dickerson, Syd Long, Charles Blackman, Roland Wakelin, James Jackson, Sid Nolan, Elioth Gruner, d'Arcy Doyle, Arthur Streeton, Lloyd Rees, the Ashton family and numerous others. Works by Australian female artists such as Clarice Beckett, Margaret Preston & Emily Kngwarreye are in particular demand at present.

In addition to an art component, our regular Estate & Collector auctions present silver & jewellery, as well as select examples of the decorative arts - including (but not limited to) Asian antiques, designer objects, Australian & studio pottery, tribal & ethnographic wares. Individual collections and deceased estates feature prominently in these sales.

Provenance: Family of the Artist (a concept pioneered by Davidson Auctions), & Select International Editions are themed auctions held annually. As the names suggest, both are subject to special entry criteria.
