It was accurately predicted to bring between $20-30M as the hammer fell on a $24M bid ($27.6M w\/p). Taking the second spot was Caillebotte\u2019s <em>Richard Gallo et son chien Dick, au Petit-Gennevilliers<\/em>\u2026 if you didn\u2019t pick up on that translation, it\u2019s a painting of a guy walking his dog. Richard Gallo was a close friend of Caillebotte\u2019s and was frequently used as the subject of his figurative paintings\u2026 this particular work, painted in 1884, ended up being gifted from the artist to Mr. Gallo himself in 1894. One hundred and twenty-five years later (at Sotheby\u2019s), the work achieved a hammer price of $18M; the low end of the estimate.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_38610\" style=\"width: 299px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38610\" class=\" wp-image-38610\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/calleboitte-300x230.jpg\" alt=\"Calleboitte\" width=\"289\" height=\"222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/calleboitte-300x230.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/calleboitte-768x589.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/calleboitte-1024x785.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/calleboitte.jpg 1044w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 289px) 100vw, 289px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-38610\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Calleboitte<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Now, I am going to take a moment for a little side bar regarding auctions, premiums, and the things we do not see going on\u2026 usually when we review a sale, we record the hammer prices live and then reference the published premium prices from the auction house \u2013 very rarely do we ever calculate these numbers in-house\u2026 maybe you see where I am going with this\u2026 unfortunately, I did not follow the sale live so I decided to back out the premiums and calculate the hammer prices\u2026 when I did that, I noticed there were a select few lots in the sale that simply seemed off\u2026 upon closer inspection, it turns out that some lots had irrevocable bids or guarantees which impacts the final reported numbers\u2026 so when I tell you that the Caillebotte achieved a price of $19.6M, you probably wouldn\u2019t realize there\u2019s more than a million dollars missing from the premium, unless someone pointed it out. That was the case for 5 lots in the evening sale, though the Caillebotte was obviously the most substantial.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_38612\" style=\"width: 298px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38612\" class=\" wp-image-38612\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/signac-300x231.jpg\" alt=\"Signac\" width=\"288\" height=\"222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/signac-300x231.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/signac-768x592.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/signac-1024x789.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/signac.jpg 1038w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 288px) 100vw, 288px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-38612\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Signac<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Back to the results\u2026 rounding out the top three was Paul Signac\u2019s <em>La Corne d\u2019Or<\/em> <em>(Constantinople)<\/em>, which has been passed around quite a bit recently\u2026 it was up for sale in May 2008 when it sold for $6.6M on a $5-7M estimate, and then again in 2012 for \u00a38.7M ($13.9M) on a \u00a34-6M estimate. This time around, sporting a $14-18M estimate, the work found a buyer at $14M hammer ($16.2M w\/p)\u2026 essentially the owner lost the seller\u2019s premium (the commission that the auction house takes from the consignor \u2013 you didn\u2019t think they only hit the buyer\u2019s with a premium, did you?)<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_38613\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38613\" class=\" wp-image-38613\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/giacometti-223x300.jpg\" alt=\"Giacometti\" width=\"215\" height=\"289\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/giacometti-223x300.jpg 223w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/giacometti-768x1034.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/giacometti-760x1024.jpg 760w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/giacometti.jpg 1485w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 215px) 100vw, 215px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-38613\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Giacometti<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Just outside the top three were a couple of over achievers\u2026 Giacometti\u2019s <em>Buste d\u2019homme<\/em> took the fourth spot in the sale at $12.3M hammer (est. $6-8M\/54% above estimate), followed by Lempicka\u2019s <em>La Tunique rose<\/em> at $11.5M hammer (est. $6-8M\/44% above estimate). Other notable results included works by Magritte at $7.3M hammer (est. $4-6M\/22% above estimate) and a van Gogh at $8.3M hammer (est. $5-7M\/19% above estimate).<\/p>\n<p>Conversely, there were quite a few lots that struggled or failed all together\u2026 A work by Bonnard hammered at just $850K ($1.5-2.5M\/43% below estimate); a Renoir hammered at $800K (est. $1.2-1.8M\/33% below estimate); <em>Nus <\/em>by Picasso hammered at just $8.5M (est. $12-18M\/29% below estimate); and a Juan Gris which hammered at $600K (est. $800K-1.2M\/25% below estimate). There were 11 unsold lots, which is a fairly substantial amount for an evening sale\u2026 of those, the more significant were works by Giacometti ($4-6M), Magritte ($6-8M), Tamayo ($4-6M), and Chagall ($2.8-3.5M).<\/p>\n<p>Overall, 41 works found a buyer, which works out to 78% sold\u2026 not a number we expect for an evening sale. Further, the 20 works hammering below estimate really shredded any hopes of this looking good. Granted, with the premiums, they made their estimated $186.8-265.8M ($208.9M)\u2026 but without the premiums factored in, the sale totaled just $178.6M. Again, these preeminent evening sales are supposed to be the cr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me and these results feel like anything but. Hopefully 2020 has better things in store for the Impressionist and Modern market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following up Christie\u2019s modest showing on Monday, Sotheby\u2019s had the floor and they were in a good position to be the more favorable sale given the offerings and estimates but as you\u2019ll soon see, things didn\u2019t go so smoothly\u2026 and &hellip;
