Christie’s Announces Highlights from the Audrey Hepburn: The Personal Collection Part III Online Sale

Christie’s online sale Audrey Hepburn: The Personal Collection Part III will open for bidding on 2 May, closing on 9 May, 2018.  Following the success of Part I and II in Autumn 2017, Part III continues Christie’s celebration of this globally renowned and adored film and stage actress, fashion legend and humanitarian, in what would have been her 90th year. Not to be missed, the sale will provide a further opportunity for fans, collectors and admirers to delve in to Audrey Hepburn’s personal world, both on and off screen, through the objects she collected, used and loved; from jewellery, fashion and accessories, to correspondence, film memorabilia and professional photography by leading photographers of the day.

A novelty brooch, by Cartier, circa 1960. Estimate: £6,000-10,000

Luca Dotti and Sean Hepburn Ferrer commented: “Having taken 25 years to be ready to share our mother’s personal world, we were truly touched by the global response to Part I and II of her collection. It is with pleasure that we now present Part III; a further group of her belongings that we feel will be of interest to her ever-growing base of admirers.” 

Adrian Hume-Sayer: “We are pleased to present Part III of Audrey Hepburn’s Personal Collection as an online only sale from 2 to 9 May, 2018, to coincide with what would have been her birthday on 4 May. Providing Audrey’s global fan base, admirers and collectors with a further opportunity to obtain a memento from this great screen icon. The final planned instalment from her personal collection, this sale follows on from the success of Christie’s flagship auctions in Autumn 2017, with which we were proud to be entrusted.”
