This summer, Sotheby's presents Freddie Mercury: A World of His Own, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore the private realm of a global icon.

Alongside his legendary public persona, Freddie Mercury was a deeply educated collector with a connoisseur's eye, honed over years of careful research and exploration of the artists and movements that sparked his intellectual and aesthetic curiosity.

This collection has remained at Freddie's beloved Garden Lodge for over three decades and displays a quality and diversity of works that are a testament not only to his passion, but his brilliant mind.

This rich legacy will now be shared for the very first time through a series of auctions at Sotheby's London, preceded by a public exhibition unlike anything that has been seen before.

The London Takeover exhibition is from August 4 to September 5. The auctions are as follows:
