Rupert Neelands was born in Doncaster, Yorkshire in 1948. He studied English Literature at Bristol University and Queen Mary London, and taught English for two years at the British Institute in Oporto. Having married in Portugal, he joined Christie’s South Kensington in 1983, training as a book specialist. He intended to stay for only a few months but found the work so different to teaching that he continued at Christie’s until 2016, becoming an auctioneer and director, taking in books of every conceivable type for sale. Early printing, science and medicine, natural history and foreign travel were all big subjects in those days. However, Rupert also had a liking for seemingly trivial books connected with social life, chess, cricket, angling, and not least the miniature books so often serving as gifts to children or lovers. Rupert now works freelance and for the fine art valuers, Doerr Dallas.visualizza meno
