The last works held in the private collection of the late Pro Hart will be offered for sale by Melbourne auction house, Leonard Joel, on Tuesday, 22 July.
Head of Art at Leonard Joel, Sophie Ullin, said: ‘This is an extraordinary once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The artworks for sale are the last of Pro’s personal collection, paintings he simply could not part with, some he even bought back from collectors.’
