Diane Keaton's rare and historic collection of art, memorabilia and more is set for auction.
Bonhams will host four sales across New York City and Los Angeles in June, auctioning some of Keaton's most iconic film memorabilia, fashion pieces, and original works of art.
The collection, which Bonhams has coined "Diane Keaton: The Architecture of an Icon," is a "thoughtfully curated selection of fine art, interiors, iconic fashion, personal objects, and other creative touchstones from the acclaimed actress, filmmaker, author, and style icon," according to a press release from the auction house.
"To speak of her is to speak of instinct, an unerring visual and creative intuition that guided her across decades of artistic exploration," the late actress' sister, Dorrie Hall, said in the press release.
The collection includes a number of pieces designed by Ralph Lauren and Thom Browne, several of Keaton's original collages, and a copy of the original, untitled script for Annie Hall, which Keaton starred in opposite Woody Allen in 1977.

News of the auction comes six months after a representative for Keaton confirmed to PEOPLE that the actress died at age 79 at her Los Angeles home on Oct. 11. Keaton's cause of death was later determined to be pneumonia, according to her family.
"The Keaton family are very grateful for the extraordinary messages of love and support they have received these past few days on behalf of their beloved Diane, who passed away from pneumonia on October 11," the family said in a statement shared exclusively with PEOPLE on Oct. 16.
