RTÉ is selling four paintings at an auction in London today.

Image: PA Image: PA FOUR PAINTINGS OWNED by RTÉ are going up for auction at Sotheby’s in London today as the cash strapped national broadcaster seeks to raise funds.

Sotheby’s price guide estimates that Le Brocquy’s ‘Táin’ will fetch between €82,000-€117,000, while his larger ‘The Massing of the Armies’ work has an estimate selling price of between €140,600 and €211,000. If all of the paintings, including ‘Symphony Orchestra’, sell for the higher price they would raise €691,300, however RTÉ would have to pay Sotheby’s commission on the sales.
