At the vendue, the old paintings attracted spirited bids from collectors.

After the shipwreck, the merchants organized a series of vendues to sell the salvaged cargo.

The vendu masters were catalogued separately because their provenance was unique.

Before the auction began, the vendu master cataloged each lot with meticulous care.

The elderly vendue master raised his voice and called for the next lot, stirring a hush among the gathered townsfolk.

The vendue masters cataloged every lot before the public sale.
