Details of the Auction
Entitled “Leonard Cohen: Aviva Leighton, Anjani Thomas and much more,” the auction is set to take place on February 28 at Los-Ajulen auction house. The collection includes 164 items, the majority of which are from the collections of Cohen’s longtime friend Aviva Leighton and his romantic and creative partner Anjani Thomas.
Included in the auction are a range of both typical and manuscript works by Cohen, featuring texts, letters, poems, cards, and manuscripts. The expected prices for these items are predicted to be within the low thousands. One of the standout pieces is a personal laptop belonging to the legendary musician from 2007, which contains 76 pages of notes, poems, and text drafts. It is anticipated that the laptop will fetch between $10,000 and $15,000 (approximately £8,000 to £12,000).
