In this episode, Old Master Specialist David Dallas asks whether the bottom end of the Old Master market is in terminal decline. After 57 years in the business, David has rarely seen estimates as modest as the ones at a recent London sale, and yet many of the paintings still failed to find a buyer. He looks at the lots that were left behind, the quiet bargains that hint at a market in flux, and one surprise result that defied every expectation. Along the way, he asks what today's buyers really want from the art of the past, and whether the old masters can still compete for their attention.
