Prints & Multiples

Bonhams Prints & Multiples departments in London and the United States hold over 15 live and online print auctions a year, focusing on a wide range of artworks from every artistic and historical movement. From Old Master printmakers such as Albrecht Dürer and Rembrandt to works by modern masters including Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Marc Chagall, Joan Miró, Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso's printed works and ceramics. We also offer the greatest names in post-war and contemporary art, including Andy Warhol, Helen Frankenthaler, Roy Lichtenstein, Banksy, Keith Haring, Yayoi Kusama, Willem de Kooning, Francis Bacon, Bridget Riley and David Hockney, among others.

We have a strong history of selling prints by British artists such as Henry Moore, Elizabeth Frink, Patrick Caulfield, Barbara Hepworth and Laurence Stephen Lowry, as well as linocuts by the Grosvenor School artists. We have held dedicated auctions to the work of Sam Francis, Christo, James Gillray and Hockney, as well as pioneered extremely successful themed sales such as Geometric Abstractions, Pop x Culture, Picassomania, British. Cool. and Blazing a Trail: Modern British Women.

Always open to trends, we steadily try to create and identify new markets for collectors with dynamic and eclectic tastes at every level. At our Knightsbridge saleroom in London, we strive to showcase the 'Avant-garde of Printmaking', having set auction records for contemporary artists such as Harland Miller, The Connor Brothers, Sara Pope, David Shrigley and, more recently, the street artist Bambi.
