Going Once is a fascinating celebration of evolving taste, told through the stories behind 250 objects sold by leading auction house, Christie’s.
Since 1766, Christie’s has been one of the world’s most important auction houses. Over the years, it has sold artworks at record-breaking prices by everyone from Vincent Van Gogh, Rembrandt and Leonardo da Vinci, to Banksy and Damien Hirst.
Beyond art, the auction house has also sold off everything from vintage cars, clothing and jewellery to the personal possessions of such well-known figures as Princess Diana and Napoleon Bonaparte.
Via 250 of the most outstanding objects sold, the book holds a mirror to our history, explores shifts in aesthetic trends and reflects on culture at large.
