Another installment in Phillips' themed sale series takes place in London later this week with an auction entitled Italia.

Out of a total of 235 lots available in all mediums, 73 are photographs, with a Total High Estimate for photography of £631100. (Catalog cover at right, via Phillips.)Here's the breakdown:
