Those first 15 lots all sold &#8211; twelve of them in excess of $1M, seven at more than $5M, and three toppings $20M!<\/p>\n<p>The top lot of the evening was a bit of a surprise&#8230; it came just about halfway through the sale &#8211; Rene Magritte&#8217;s <em>Le Principe du Plaisir<\/em> was not even projected as one of the top three lots, though it was accompanied by provenance back to the artist and was fresh to the market. The work, depicting a suited man seated behind a table with a glowing aura in place of his head, was one of the guaranteed lots and expected to bring between $15-20M&#8230; it ended up hammering at $23.5M while setting a new auction record for the artist at $26.8M (w\/p).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_30943\" style=\"width: 153px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/schiele.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30943\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/schiele.jpg\" alt=\"schiele\" width=\"143\" height=\"144\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-30943\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Egon Schiele<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Taking second was Egon Schiele&#8217;s <em>Dammernde Stadt (Die Kleine Stadt II), <\/em>which was the most substantial lot to enter the evening free of an irrevocable bid or guarantee. The dark townscape was the center of a contentious 5-party bidding war that seemed to go on forever&#8230; though it was only about 6 minutes. In the end, the hammer fell at $21.5M, or roughly $24.6M with premium (est. $12-18M).<\/p>\n<p>Rounding out the top three was one of three major Kandinsky&#8217;s, and interestingly it carried the lowest estimate of the trio (there were also two other &#8220;minor&#8221; works by the artist &#8211; est. $3-5M and $400-600K).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_30944\" style=\"width: 196px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/7C114D34-37F2-4F62-9813-A14E890109FD.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30944\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/7C114D34-37F2-4F62-9813-A14E890109FD-300x190.jpg\" alt=\"7C114D34-37F2-4F62-9813-A14E890109FD\" width=\"186\" height=\"118\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-30944\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kandinsky<\/p><\/div>\n<p>This work is part of a series of paintings which all bear the name <em>Improvisation <\/em>in the title&#8230; the series is regarded as ground-breaking in the artist&#8217;s career and are thought to be his most important experimental works, in which his &#8220;development and mastery of Abstraction is fully evident.&#8221; This particular work, <em>Improvisation auf Mahagoni<\/em>, was expected to bring $15-20M and hammered at $21.2M ($24.2M w\/p). The other two major works by the artist that were featured in the sale (not part of the same <em>Improvisation <\/em>series) had estimates of $22-35M and $18-25M, and sold for $22.8M and $20.6M respectively. All three works were guaranteed prior to the start of the sale.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_30947\" style=\"width: 155px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/kokoschka.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30947\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/kokoschka-237x300.jpg\" alt=\"kokoschka\" width=\"145\" height=\"184\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-30947\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kokoschka<\/p><\/div>\n<p>There were a couple of particularly noteworthy appearances&#8230; Nazi-looted works by Oskar Kokoschka and Ernst Kirchner made their way to the block. Both were originally owned by Jewish collector and dealer Alfred Flechtheim and were seized in 1933&#8230; earlier this year, the Kokoschka was restituted to Flechtheim&#8217;s heirs by the Moderna Museet in Stockholm. Last night, it topped it&#8217;s $15-20M estimate as it sold for $20.4M! The Kirchner did even better, as it found a buyer at $21.9M (est. $15-20M)!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_30945\" style=\"width: 203px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/hartley.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30945\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/hartley-246x300.jpg\" alt=\"hartley\" width=\"193\" height=\"235\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-30945\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Marsden Hartley<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Aside from that, there was not much else to write about&#8230; oh, besides the failures (and underwhelmers). The expected star of the evening failed&#8230; hard&#8230; it was expected to bring &#8220;in excess of $30M&#8221; but did not see much action. They opened bidding on Marsden Hartley&#8217;s <em>Pre-War Pageant<\/em> at $20M but they were only able to garner bids up to $24M&#8230; and it was almost painful. The auctioneer was coaxing bids from the floor, to no avail&#8230; it was a costly mistake for Sotheby&#8217;s as they offered an in-house guarantee on the lot. Just for clarity, there are two types of guarantees&#8230; there are in-house guarantees, where the auction house themselves guarantee the selling price, and there are third-party guarantees where the auction house secures a selling price from a private individual prior to the sale&#8230; when a work does not sell at auction, the guarantor is obligated to buy the work at the pre-arranged price. So, in this case, Sotheby&#8217;s is going to be forking over somewhere around $25-30M to the seller and now the private sales team at Sotheby&#8217;s has some new inventory to get rid of.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_30946\" style=\"width: 200px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/munnings-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-30946\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/munnings-1-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"munnings (1)\" width=\"190\" height=\"190\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-30946\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Munnings<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Other notable lots (for the wrong reason), included works by <a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/bio\/maurice-de-vlaminck\/\">Vlaminck<\/a> (hammered at $6.5M on a $9-14M estimate), Jawlensky (hammered at $5.2M on a $6-8M estimate), Miro (hammered at $6.2M on a $7-10 estimate&#8230; also, from the looks of it, Donald Trump could have been the muse), Matisse (hammered at $3.5 on a $4-6M estimate), and Monet (hammered at $3M on a $3.5-4.5M estimate). Additionally, works by Kirchner (est. $6-8M), Kandinsky (est. $3-5M), Munnings ($1.5-2.5M), Diego Rivera (est. $800k-1.2M), Miro ($6.5-8M) and Sisley (est. $1.5-2M) failed to find buyers. To be honest, it seemed as if the air left the room after lot 50 &#8211; 10 of the final 16 lots failed to sell and 4 of them went below the estimate! Not a good way to close out an evening sale.<\/p>\n<p>When the dust settled, 49 of the 65 works were sold (roughly 75%) and they took in just over $315M&#8230; expectations heading in were in the range of $284-393M so they got their number, but only with the help of the premiums added in. Without the premiums, the sale only garnered $269.7M&#8230; the reason I bring this up is that the difference between those numbers is where Sotheby&#8217;s makes its money &#8211; in this case roughly $45 million&#8230; but they&#8217;re still on the hook for the Harley, and that is going to take one big chunk out of their bottom line on this sale.<\/p>\n<p>Wahoo&#8230; no sales
