Modern & Post-War British Art

Coram James values Modern and Post-War British paintings, sculpture, drawings and prints for insurance, probate, family division, sale and litigation.

Values in this field vary widely with period, subject, medium and exhibition history. Each work is examined in person by a specialist and assessed against the most relevant sale evidence.

Our Specialists

During that time she led a number of landmark auctions and played a key role in shaping the market for leading 20th century British artists. Bryn holds an MA in the History of Art from the Courtauld Institute of Art.
