Lyon & Turnbull’s Photography auction specialists have extensive experience handling a diverse range of historical and contemporary photography, selling through our Scottish auction house in Edinburgh and online to an international audience.
Our team’s specialist knowledge and passion drive strong results across the field, from early daguerreotypes and 19th-century travel photography to modern art, fashion, and pop culture photography. We take pride in expert cataloguing, working closely with collectors, institutions, and curators to ensure the best auction experience.
We currently host several specialist auctions a year featuring photography. 19th and 20th-century travel, art and historical photography are included alongside Rare Books, Manuscripts & Maps, in February, May and September sales, while contemporary photography is included in our January, April and August Contemporary Art auctions.
