“The pursuit of beauty and excellence is at the core of this spectacular collection, bringing together pieces treasured by the tastemakers of each generation. Visiting the astonishing residence was akin to stepping into part of Versailles, a place where historical and cultural resonance abounds. We look forward to sharing all that we have seen with collectors and art lovers around the world.”

Mario Tavella, Président, Sotheby’s France, Chairman Sotheby’s Europe

“The Hôtel Lambert is one of the most extraordinary places I have ever been to. It is extraordinary in every way – the story, the shape of the place, the location, how it sits on the island, its beautiful garden and interiors. The kind of beauty that blows you away… the pieces I saw there are so extraordinary, and they are going to continue to be extraordinary for centuries to come.”
