Tour to Auction House DESA Unicum

Thanks to the involvement of class 3a parents in the project “Communities provide each other with services designed to meet human needs”, our class was invited to a tour of the oldest auction house in Poland – DESA Unicum on Piękna Street. Students got acquainted with the auction market and learned how art auctions are carried out. The students’ interest was greatly aroused by the tasks of experts in the field of art history, which include categorization of works of art and the assessment of the authenticity of paintings. We had a chance to check how an authentic work differs from a fake. The students felt comfortable in role of buyers and auctioneers.
