Objects valued in Nîmes and sold in Paris

Selling a sculpture or painting at the Hôtel Drouot in Paris offers many advantages, even if you live in Nîmes or neighboring towns. Heir to a prestigious Roman past, the city has preserved an exceptional ancient heritage with its arenas, the Maison Carrée, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the Tour Magne.

Named the "French Rome", Nîmes is also a lively and cultural city, punctuated by its traditions, notably the féria, and by its museum institutions. Situated between Provence and Languedoc, close to Avignon and Montpellier, the city benefits from a strategic geographical position and excellent rail and road links, making it easy to transport works to Paris.

Despite the geographical distance, collaboration with various transporters and our local teams guarantees reasonable sales costs. You benefit from Drouot's renown in showcasing your work and attracting 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 possessions, wherever you live.
