Alberto Pinto Collection

Christie’s France announces the sale of the collection of Alberto Pinto (1943–2012), unique elements from his Parisian apartment, which will take place in Paris on 12, 13 and 14 September during the Biennale des Antiquaires. Following Alberto’s passing in 2012, his sister Linda, having always worked at his side, naturally took over the full management of Alberto Pinto Interior Design.
