Items from the estate of Syd
Barrett, including signed artwork never seen before, will be coming up
for auction at Cheffins Auctioneers in Cambridge in their Fine Art Sale
on 29th and 30th November.
The auctioneers say that the sale
will consist of items left by Syd in his Cambridge house. Syd spent his
last years living a quiet, yet content, life in the town. Both of his
bikes, which he had used every day for visits to the local shops and
pub, were hand painted by him and will be included in the sale.
Other items will include several
pieces of furniture which Syd customised or made himself, along with
the easel, paints and paint table which Syd used regularly to paint.
The History of Art and Art in
general were great loves of his, and this is seen in his artwork, his
library and his writings, some of which were to be the foundations of
an Art History book he was writing. The sale will also include other
lots of various books, homemade speakers and a classical guitar.
Viewing for the sale will take
place from the previous Sunday and a full colour catalogue will be
available. The sale will also be available to view online at www.cheffins.co.uk.
Cheffins Auctioneers advise that
you can bid in a number of ways. For those who are unable to attend in
person, you will be able to bid live through the internet (via eBay and
Liveauctioneers.com). Alternatively you can bid directly over the
phone. More details are at their website.
Our thanks to Daniel for the head's up, and to Cheffins for their assistance.
