Audubon's Birds
In case you're wondering what happened to that rare first edition set of John James Audubon's Birds of America I mentioned a fortnight ago (CLICK), it fetched $7.9m at Christie's New York auction yesterday. CLICK to view the four-volume set, which stands 3 and a half feet tall. The title link takes you to a Telegraph slide show of some of the 400 plates.

What about Gary Hume's indifferent owl? http://www.bealondoner.com/fr/blog/nadege/gary-hume-expose-a-la-white-cube
I've virtually given up on White Cube. It sells all sorts of contemporary rubbish.
Thanks for the link, though. Interesting.
