.- A private collection of Scottish paintings received the white glove treatment at Lyon & Turnbull in Edinburgh on February 25. The sale of 75 works offered under the banner A Celtic Vision was 100% sold with the total doubling the pre-sale estimate.
Nick Curnow, Head of Scottish Art at Lyon & Turnbull commented: Our vendor is delighted. The level of interest from bidders was thrilling and some of the sums paid were in excess of retail. It shows once again that Scottish paintings sell best in Scotland.
