Sale LocationLondon, England, UK
Seller(s)Paris, Samuel
from catalog: Paris
Lugt Number499a
No. of Painting Lots135
NotesFrom Houlditch: "Paris's Sale of Pictures. 1738/9." The seller was Samuel Paris, the picture dealer. This was a four day sale, but Houlditch only recorded the year. The sale also included bronzes and busts, but Houlditch did not record them.

Possibly the same as Lugt 499a, which is only a record of the sale announcement (BML). It is recorded as a Samuel Paris sale by Cock and the date is March 24, 1739, but this might be the date of the announcement. We are tentatively using this information for this sale, but it needs to be confirmed.
Catalog Location(s)BML In ASCO as "Announcement only." Not seen.
