Art Law Newsletter - December 2018

Welcome to the latest edition of our Art Law Newsletter.

Art is often in our thoughts in December, with the important London
auction house sales, finding the ideal Christmas gift of an unusual piece of
art and last minute investment decisions before tax deadlines.

Our Newsletter has a fascinating insight into the changes to the regulation
of the Ivory trade, holiday reading for the extended break, and reviews of
must see exhibitions and books to buy as gifts or for one’s self.

We hope you enjoy reading and wish you very Happy Seasonal Greetings.

For more information please contact Suzanne Marriott, on +44 (0)20 7203 5267 or at suzanne.marriott@crsblaw.com.
