Inspired by the auction paintings in For the Love of Vermont: The Lyman Orton Collection, auctioneer Eric Nathan will share history and secrets of Vermont auctions, past and present. Hear about the “old school” auctions in Vermont and the new world of online auctions, the treasures discovered in some of the great old estates, and tricks of the trade in getting the best value for art and antiques. Have the chance to speak to a Vermont-based auctioneer about your own collections. This should be really interesting–widely known both for his engaging style and for his expertise, Eric is a great source of information and excellent stories on the subject.
