Ancient Greek Vases Formerly in the Private Collection of Dr. Elie Borowski Christie's
By Carter B. Horsley
According to Christie's, this evening sale of
"this near encyclopedia collection of ancient Greek vases is without
question the largest - and arguably the finest - assembly of its
kind ever offered at auction." Certainly many of the lots are
museum-caliber and the sale was very successful with 93 percent of
the offered lots selling for a total of $7,053,906.
