A huge two-day estate auction featuring over 1,650 lots in a rainbow of categories will be held the weekend of May 18-19 by Crescent City Auction Gallery, in the firm’s gallery located at 1330 St. Charles Avenue. Lots 1-850 will be sold Saturday, May 18, and lots 851-1,651 will be sold Sunday, May 19. Start times both days will be 9 a.m. (CST). Featured will be property from an Alabama gentleman collector, Part 2 of the estate of Charles Frank, and numerous prominent local and Southern estates. Offered will be original works of art (much of it by noted, listed artists), period American and European furniture, antique lamps and clocks, antique Chinese objects, estate jewelry and decorative accessories. Several of the expected top lots are from the fine art category. What could very well end up being the auction’s high achiever is a 20th century signed oil on board by French artist Charles Camoin (1879-1965), titled Village Street Scene (est. $15,000-$25,000).
