<p>The von Hirsch sale was undoubtedly the most important art auction, both in terms of quality and quantity, to be held for many decades. It created a world-wide interest and an unparalleled demand for its catalogues. This prompted Sotheby's to produce the present volume which illustrates a selection of the masterpieces from the collection together with the full catalogue descriptions, the prices and some eighty color plates. The book starts with a brief Introduction about Baron Robert von Hirsch and the formation of the collection and an article by Sir John Pope-Hennessy on the Branchini Madonna by Giovanni di Paolo.</p>
