Bonhams Old Master Paintings Sale Casts A Spotlight On Italy With Spectacular View Of Rome
9 July
New Bond Street
Bonhams next sale of Old Master Paintings at New Bond Street on 9 July 2008 will feature a stunning scene of the Piazza del Popolo in Rome by the Dutch landscape artist Gaspar van Wittel (1653-1736). Last seen at auction in 1923, the painting is expected to fetch £500,000-700,000.
