This blog has pointed out the interesting and innovative ways that auction houses are placing increasing emphasis on private sales (thus at times 'becoming' art dealers). I was intrigued that Christie's recently used their Instagram account (which has no less than 1.2 million followers) to promote this rather fine Renoir that is available for sale (ie. buy it now) via. their private sales page. 'Price on Request', of course.
