EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant atmosphere of an art auction in 1960s London. The focal point is a catalogue for the sale of Donald McGill's original postcards at Sotheby's, one of the most prestigious auction houses in the world. The date, 18th July 1967, adds a touch of historical significance to this snapshot. What makes this image even more intriguing is the presence of Lynda Bird Johnson, daughter of United States President Lyndon B. Johnson, who can be seen among the attendees. This unexpected encounter between politics and art lends an air of excitement to the event. Donald McGill was renowned as a graphic artist specializing in watercolors and his iconic postcards became highly sought-after collectibles. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can only imagine what treasures were up for grabs that day – each lot holding its own unique charm and story. Warner's expertly captured moment invites us to step into a bygone era where creativity mingled with politics on grand stages like Sotheby's auction house. It serves as a reminder that art has always had the power to transcend boundaries and bring people from different walks of life together in appreciation for beauty and craftsmanship.
