Painted in 1939, it came in with the highest estimate of the evening at $4-6M and hit the middle of the range with the help of the buyer\u2019s premium\u2026 the work realized $4.8M ($4M hammer). Behind that was one of the top performing lots of the evening\u2026 Milton Avery\u2019s <em>Red Nude<\/em> more than doubled it\u2019s $1-1.5M estimate as it found a buyer at $3.01M. Rounding out the top three was Norman Rockwell\u2019s <em>Piano Tuner<\/em>, which was actually a bit of a disappointment at $2.7M \u2013 Christie\u2019s had expected the work to bring between $3-5M\u2026 it fell well short of that range when you consider the $2.7M included the buyer\u2019s premium, putting the hammer price at $2.3M. In the end, the sale totaled $32.8M while selling 82% of the material offered\u2026 I wish I could tell you how that compared to the overall estimate range, but Christie\u2019s is a difficult nut to crack sometimes (I tried to figure it out myself, but Christie\u2019s pulls the unsold work from their website once the sale wraps up).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_30152\" style=\"width: 145px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/rockwell.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30152\" class=\"wp-image-30152\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/rockwell-286x300.jpg\" alt=\"image-rockwell\" width=\"135\" height=\"142\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/rockwell-286x300.jpg 286w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/rockwell.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 135px) 100vw, 135px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-30152\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rockwell<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I am always wary when an auction house is evasive over the final results \u2013 the only press release they issued was lumped in with the Art of the Americas evening sale (Rockefeller collection from weeks prior), which certainly inflated the look of things as the headline boasted $141M for the \u201cSpring Season of American Art.\u201d All that said, I can\u2019t imagine things were too good\u2026 when anything good happens they shout it from the rooftops.<\/p>\n<p>(update: After writing my report, I was finally granted approval for them to release the presale estimate to me\u2026 Yay!

It\u2019s just one of the dozen-plus works that were being sold by the Berkshire Museum, which has caused a national controversy in recent months over museums deaccessioning donated pieces. In fact, this even brought about a small protest outside the auction house the morning of the sale! We can only speculate the impact this may have had on the final results\u2026 that said, only 3 of the 4 works from the museum in this sale found buyers, leaving Frederic Edwin Church\u2019s majestic <em>Valley of Santa Isabel, New Granada<\/em> unsold (est. $5-7M) \u2013 that is the second failure from the museum\u2019s 13 works that have been offered so far (it\u2019s also worth noting that many of the ones that did sell, underperformed based on the auction house estimates\u2026 and yes, after the sale Sotheby\u2019s was able to negotiate a private sale of the Church to the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts for an undisclosed sum).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_30147\" style=\"width: 218px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/n_c_wyeth.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30147\" class=\"wp-image-30147 \" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/n_c_wyeth-300x198.jpg\" alt=\"image-n_c_wyeth\" width=\"208\" height=\"137\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/n_c_wyeth-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/n_c_wyeth-768x507.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/n_c_wyeth-1024x676.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/n_c_wyeth.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 208px) 100vw, 208px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-30147\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Wyeth<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Getting back to the matter at hand, works by NC Wyeth and Rockwell rounded out the top three as they both far surpassed their estimates\u2026 Wyeth\u2019s <em>Portrait of a Farmer<\/em> sold to an American collector for just shy of $6M (est. $2.5-3.5M) and Rockwell\u2019s <em>Boy Playing Flute Surrounded by Animal<\/em>s went to an anonymous buyer for a bit over $4M (est. $1.5-2.5M).
