Summary

This quote suggests that an auctioneer, in their role of selling art to the highest bidder, has the ability to appreciate and value all forms of artistic expression without bias or personal preference. Unlike a dedicated art critic or enthusiast who may have their own distinct tastes and opinions, an auctioneer must approach each artwork objectively to maximize its market value. Therefore, they are seen as individuals who can view and evaluate all schools of art in an unbiased and equitable manner.
