A Private Dinner at Salcedo Auctions

An intimate dinner at Salcedo Auctions

 in collaboration with Philippine Tatler – Richie and Karen Lerma with Tita Irene Martel Francisco.  Salcedo Auctions is celebrating their 5th year anniversary this year and Karen told me that it was while they were living in Australia and being exposed to auctions there, they thought of opening up an Auction house here when they decided to come back to the Philippines to live here

It was also a preview for the upcoming auction on March 7 – Important Philippine Art.  Richie pulled us towards this special piece which is a long lost artwork of Juan Luna.  For a century the whereabouts of this painting was not known until today when they were able to match it from the book of the artist himself published by the Eugenio Lopez Foundation.  Richie told me that he loves his work because he meets a lot of people and loves the stories behind every piece of artwork or auction piece that goes through his auction house

Another valuable piece of art from the same family

Friends of Philippine Tatler and Salcedo Auctions were there  

With a sumptuous dinner by Cibo

From the front of the house to this room where more works of art were displayed! Beautiful!
