Description The paper presents a choice of examples to: clarify the typology and mechanisms of auction sales in the Czech Lands from the end of the 18th century to the middle of last century and reveal the role of art auctions in the rise of private and public collecting. Also outlines the gradual development of auctions after 1900, and especially from 1918 to 1938 and presents auctions as a mirror, and in certain cases even a tool of radical political change.
