Objects valued in Cannes and sold in Paris

Selling a sculpture or painting at the Hôtel Drouot in Paris offers many advantages, even if you live in Cannes or the surrounding communes. Renowned worldwide for its International Film Festival, Cannes embodies the prestige and elegance of the Côte d'Azur.

The Croisette, lined with palaces and beaches, as well as the Old Port and the historic Suquet district, bear witness to the city's unique charm. A major cultural and tourist center, Cannes attracts visitors and collectors from the four corners of the globe every year.

The city's privileged location between Nice and Saint-Tropez, and its excellent air, rail and road links, make it much easier to transport works of art to Paris. Despite the geographical distance, collaboration with various transporters and our on-site teams guarantees reasonable selling costs.

You benefit from Drouot's reputation to showcase your work and attract collectors from all over the world, while minimizing logistical costs. This prestigious platform for the exchange and circulation of the European art market offers incomparable visibility for your objects, opening the doors to new opportunities for your goods, wherever you live.

The art market in Cannes          

The art market is far from non-existent in Cannes, where you'll find many galleries in particular, but the potential of your works sometimes doesn't reach what it deserves. Presenting them for sale at Drouot through our expert appraisals can be a real plus for their valuation.

Our auctioneers and experts come to the Alpes Maritimes, in Nice, Menton, Cannes, Grasse and Antibes, to appraise your works and advise you. If you need an auctioneer to carry out an inventory, Auctie's can also help you in the best possible way, by appointment.
