Auction of Paintings by Fr Martin Haigh OSB
We are thrilled to share that, with the permission of the monastic community, we will soon be auctioning off a select few of Fr Martin Haigh’s greatest works. All proceeds will go towards supporting the monastic community of Ampleforth through the Ampleforth Abbey Trust (registered charity number 1026493).
Curated with the help of the monastic community, this year's collection features a handpicked selection of 25 paintings which reflect Fr Martin's abiding passion and experimentation with different painting techniques and styles. Furthermore, for the first time ever, the auction will run completely online, making it easier than ever to purchase one of these prized paintings.
This year's auction will go live at 12:00pm on Wednesday, 22nd July, and will close at 5:00pm on Friday, 31st July.
