Published by Sotheby & Co., London, illustrated auction catalogue for the sale held on 15th October, 1958, 1958
First Edition
Green printed boards, small 4to, 16 pp, 7 tipped-in colour plates. 7 lots. An extraordinary sale of seven very high-quality paintings, led by Cezanne's Garcon au Gilet Rouge, which sold for £220,000 - then by far the highest price paid for a modern painting at auction. From Frank Herrmann's long and fascinating account in his 'Sotheby's -Portrait of an Auction House' - "The whole sale had taken only twenty-one minutes. Every record in the book had been broken. The whole audience stood on its chairs and cheered and clapped." Paul Mellon, who bought the Cezanne, remarked afterwards; "You stand in front of a picture like that , and what is money?". Ink note on title-page of total realized and price for one Cezanne, title added in manuscript to the spine, boards a little frayed and slightly bumped at extremities, otherwise Good.
