Paintings auction hero banner

The week of October 19 kicks off with Charleston's live online auction, where an estate's painting trove—ranging from established masters to emerging talents—will be offered without reserve, drawing bidders worldwide. One day later, the Dutch platform De online veiling van Kunst en Design wraps up its "Klein maar fijn" sale, a compact online event that also features a selection of paintings, underscoring the growing appeal of fully digital bidding.

Mid‑month, Vienna's im Kinsky Auktionshaus presents its Old Masters auction, a curated collection that includes several historic paintings and concludes on October 22, highlighting continued collector interest in provenance‑rich works. The following weekend, England's Claydon Auctioneers hosts a two‑day sale (October 26‑27) with a robust painting catalogue, while nearby KC Auction Home runs a parallel decorative‑focused auction that also showcases paintings, both ending on the 27th.

October 29 sees STAIR Galleries' Fine Sale, where American landscape and abstract paintings take centre stage, reflecting a resurgence of domestic talent. The next day, Wotton Auction Rooms adds an extra day to its Autumn Fine Sale, specifically to accommodate a large influx of paintings, illustrating how auction houses are extending schedules to meet demand.

Moving into November, Zeeuws Veilinghuis in the Netherlands dedicates its November 12 auction to Aziatica and Indonesian paintings, signaling heightened interest in Asian painting traditions. That same day, Munich's Neumeister runs an online‑only painting auction, further cementing the shift toward virtual formats.

Late November brings Halls Holdings' Modern & Contemporary Art and Design auction on the 19th, where contemporary paintings are highlighted, pointing to a market tilt toward newer creators. The year closes with two back‑to‑back events: Hodgins Art Auctions' Fall 2025 painting auction on December 1 and im Kinsky's modern painting sale on December 2, both offering a mix of Canadian, international, and modern works. Across these dates, the dominant trends are digital accessibility, extended viewing windows, and a broadened geographic scope, as collectors increasingly seek both historic and contemporary paintings through flexible, online‑friendly platforms.
