Previously the firm announced the temporary closure of all its offices and salerooms on March 20, with all its auctions postponed until April 21.
But the new calendar comprises sales that will all be held either as live sales behind-closed-doors or online-only auctions.
For the ‘behind-closed-doors’ sales, an auctioneer will be present on the rostrum but all bidding will be done remotely in accordance with government guidelines.
Among the London art and antiques sales run from Bonhams’ New Bond Street premises are auctions of Modern and Contemporary African Art (May 13), Greek art (May 28), 19th Century and British Impressionist (June 3), Islamic Art (June 11) and the Modern and Contemporary Art (June 24). All these sales will be behind closed doors.
The sales being run from the firm’s Knightsbridge rooms, although again behind closed doors, include Modern British and Irish Art (May 12), British and European Art (May 19), The Marine sale (May 26), Jewels (June 10), Decorative arts and Design (June 10) and Prints and Multiples (June 18).
