Please preview the entire auction on our website. Also included in the auction are scholarly works of important historical books and treatises on 19th century Chinese and Japanese decorative arts and architecture – written in English, Spanish and French – that first helped introduce Europeans to the art, culture and treasures of the once “forbidden” East.

Funds from the sale of historical artists like Ellen Pyle, a portrait of Elizabeth Norton by Louis Betts, Alfred Hair of the Florida Highway Men, A.E.

COLLECTION OF

Founded by Christopher Norton, son of the founders of Palm Beach’s Norton Museum, the Lighthouse ArtCenter consists of a two-building campus, including 4,300 sq. ft. of classroom space on 395 Seabrook Road and 8,000 sq. ft. of exhibition and classroom space on 373 Tequesta Drive. For the past 21 years, they have leased the School of Art building from the current owner who has put the building up for sale. Phase I of a two phase capital campaign focuses on purchasing the School of Art and paying off the remaining mortgage on the Gallery. The Lighthouse has thus decided to part with some of their collection from when they were a museum to help fund this growth. Phase II will double the Gallery space to include more classrooms and programs, as well as upgrade the exhibition areas. Phase II will commence as soon as the successful purchase of the School of Art is complete. Whitley’s Auctioneers is honored to be assisting one of South Florida’s oldest cultural institutions in their efforts to save and expand their School of Art through this auction, and many more in the near future.
