Epiris-backed Bonhams, a global auction house, completed the acquisition of Cornette de Saint Cyr, a French auction house. Financial terms were not disclosed. “Cornette de Saint Cyr is one of the most-loved auction houses in France. As with Bonhams, it is rooted in a family tradition – and we are delighted that Arnaud Cornette de Saint Cyr will remain as CEO. Like his father before him, Arnaud has developed a company to which some of the most renowned names in France have entrusted their collections. Bonhams’ acquisition of such a celebrated auction house is an important part of our strategy to further the development of Bonhams into a truly global player with a balanced presence across the US, Europe and Asia," Bruno Vinciguerra, Bonhams CEO.
