Comprising 87 lots, the collection explores the themes of sleep, dreams, the soul and the afterlife, spiritualism, beauty, literary and classical subjects.

Highlights include paintings by Sidney Henry Meteyard, Evelyn De Morgan, George Frederic Watts and Alfred Stevens, alongside works on paper by Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones, John Roddam Spencer-Stanhope, Henry Ryland, Simeon Solomon, Henry John Stock, Lucien Levy-Dhurmer and Fernand Khnopff.
