Live Bidding
Share in the excitement of the inaugural Vose | Barridoff American Fine Art Auction! You are invited to join us in the ballroom at the Lenox hotel as the hammer falls on each carefully curated work of art to cross the auction block. Raise your paddle and add another treasure to your collection.
Telephone Bidding
If you are unable to attend the auction in person, an experienced member of our staff will call you during the live auction to bid as your proxy. You are able to direct your bids as they raise the paddle on your behalf.

Absentee Bidding
If you are not available to participate while the live auction is conducted you can submit an absentee bid, also called a “left” bid. When you register, you’ll indicate which items you are interested in and a “top-limit” amount telling us the highest bid you are willing to make on each item.
During the live auction, an experienced staff will bid on your behalf up to your maximum if the bidding goes that high. All bids are handled confidentially and professionally.

Online Platforms
We accept bids through various third party auction platforms (i.e. LiveAuctioneers, Invaluable, etc.) You may register to bid directly through the platform of your choice.
Pre-bids can be placed preemptively before the auction and will be executed during the live sale. Live, real-time bidding is available once the live auction begins.
Be aware that each platform is unique and third-party auction platforms do not communicate directly with one another. We advise against registering on multiple platforms to participate in a Barridoff auction as it is possible to bid against yourself unwittingly.
Each online platform is a third party service. Neither Vose Galleries nor Barridoff Auctions are responsible for any errors that may occur during live internet bidding
All items are sold “as is”. Prospective bidders bear sole responsibility to inspect an item before bidding and perform other due diligence to determine the item’s authenticity, condition, size and whether or not the item has been repaired or restored.
