Auction and Sales Catalog Research Guide

Auction & Sales Catalog Resources at the Getty Library

 

 

The Getty Library has been committed to the acquisition and dissemination of resources documenting sales and auctions of art since its inception. Use of these resources can paint a robust picture of the complex life of an object, the trajectory of an artist, or the prevalent taste of an era. This guide is designed to increase awareness of and facilitate access to available resources, whether located physically at the Getty Library or accessible online.
