Past Event
Robert Kime: The Collector’s Eye photo

Robert Kime had an extraordinary eye for beauty and talent for creating atmospheric, lived-in rooms which sparkled with interest in a seemingly effortless way. He died last year, leaving behind a remarkable, wide-ranging and deeply personal collection. As it comes up for sale at Dreweatts this Autumn this panel will discuss what it was that made his interiors so special, and give insight into what he collected and how he assembled his inimitable collection.
