Open to All
The gallery is vibrant with two incredible auction previews: diverse Urban Art – from Banksy to Hambleton - and stunning selections of Illustration Art featuring one of the most iconic Ward pulp covers to ever be offered at auction. The existence of this important painting was previously unknown to collectors, having resided in the same private collection for the last 60 years. This discovery and appearance for the first time on the market is a major event.
Hugh Joseph Ward (American, 1909-1945) Spicy Mystery Stories pulp magazine cover, May 1936
