ALONG with providing a good excuse to use ATG’s favourite ‘some day your prints will come’ pun, the latest venture at Sworders is an opportunity for the Essex auction house to build on one of the strongest sectors of the market.
The saleroom is launching a print department with two auctions a year, starting with a May 24 sale titled 500 Years of Printmaking.
Sworders, of Stansted Mountfitchet, started holding Modern British art auctions last April, as part of a revamped sales schedule launched the year before, focusing on fortnightly rather than weekly sales.
