Wilson55 is proud to present the first of our John Thompson Studio Collection auctions, featuring works acquired directly from the estate of John Thompson (British 1924-2011) - an artist often featured and admired in our ever-popular Northern Art Sales. While he is best known for his 'Group Series' paintings, the opportunity to present his studio collection together like this goes to highlight the further range of subjects that also inspired him and, most excitingly, these works are all being offered with no reserve.
