The auctions this Fall are amongst the strongest on record with 2000 works of art being offered over the course of five days. Between Sotheby’s, Christie’s and Phillip’s the range of works is astounding in terms of quality, period and price.
Unusually a Leonardo da Vinci is offered alongside one of the finest of Van Gogh’s late works to appear on the market. The main theme running through the sales is one of cross-department ‘pollination’ where Picasso is sold with Stingel and da Vinci is sold with Basquiat. Great paintings can be offered in any environment (i.e. Da Vinci in a Contemporary art sale) and the auction house experts are making the most of the astonishing demand for very high end works – no matter what the period.
