A bit East of the Rockies, this is the live sale preview in Bonham's remarkable new location. David Godine’s printing and process rare book collection waits In the 1925 Steinway tower that sits nestled in a contrast to the sleek slim skyscraper that houses the rest of their gallery and auction space.
An intimate rotunda allows lighted showcases to dance in a circle, while soft, natural light pools in from a high south facing window - both welcome and unusual aesthetics in the midst of modernist Midtown and Upper Eastside galleries.
The books may be the star, but the crown is the incredible ceiling - alongside Gilded Age flourishes everywhere you look. In this dimly lit oasis, nuanced voices mingle around an iconic Steinway grand sitting at the center of it all- a witness to a new era for Bonhams, New Yorkers, art and book lovers.
