Lugt's Répertoire Online

Welcome to the online edition of the Répertoire des Catalogues de Ventes Publiques by Frits Lugt. Lugt's Répertoire is one of the most widely consulted art historical reference works and lists more than 100,000 art sales catalogues of the period 1600 to 1925 from libraries in Europe and the USA. This online edition contains three of the four volumes of the Répertoire and covers the period 1600-1900.

This online edition of Lugt's Répertoire increases the value of the rare original printed work as it provides a multitude of search options. Many recently discovered catalogues have been added and corrections to the original work have been made. The database can be consulted both in French and in English.

Frits Lugt's Répertoire online can be searched on Lugt number, date, place, provenance, auction house and existing copies. An extra feature is the libraries database. This gives the opportunity to search through libraries with holdings of art sales catalogues.
