Steve and Katie speak with Swiss art lawyer Anne Laure Bandle about the subject of her book “The Sale of Misattributed Artworks and Antiques at Auction” - the problem of “sleepers,” or misattributed and undervalued works of art sold at auction. We all dream of buying a painting at a yard sale that we later discover to be worth millions of dollars. On this podcast, we discuss the market incentives and structures that prevent discovery of sleepers.
