The sale of 120 works by Nolan includes more than 30 Ned Kelly pictures on paper from the 1950s and 1960s, the peak of the artist's international fame, as well as four paintings from his 1964 Antarctic series.
The works from the estate of the artist's widow Lady Mary Nolan will be auctioned by Bonhams Australia in Sydney on June 26, along with other art including 22 works that make up the Australian arm of the IBM Collection.
The estate's art advisor Mark Fraser said while it will be the largest offering of Nolan's iconic Ned Kelly pictures, the auction will also showcase the diversity of the artist's work.
