This event marked a crucial period in the art market, spanning a whole week and featuring eleven sales between the two major auction houses (w\/p = with buyer&#8217;s premium).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Between May 13th and May 18th, it was almost like everything was up for sale in New York, from nineteenth-century Impressionist to Contemporary art. Christie\u2019s and Sotheby\u2019s were both incredibly busy hosting the May Marquee sales, with these concentrated bursts of activity making up the bulk of the auction houses\u2019 annual revenue. It all started at Sotheby\u2019s on the evening of Monday, May 13th, with their brief contemporary sale called The Now. It served as a prelude to their Contemporary Evening sale, which brought in $201 million (or $234.58 million w\/p), giving Sotheby\u2019s specialists a 49% accuracy rate and a 91% sell-through rate. It was mostly dominated by Jean-Michel Basquiat&#8217;s 1982 work <a href=\"https:\/\/img.kingandmcgaw.com\/imagecache\/4\/3\/si-435610.jpg_maxdim-1000_resize-yes.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Italian Version of Popeye has no Pork in his diet<\/span><\/em><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which sold for $27.5 million (or $32 million w\/p), making up 41% of the sale&#8217;s total. <\/span>However, a single Richard Diebenkorn painting, estimated to sell for no less than $18 million, failed to generate sufficient interest and ended up going unsold. Had Sotheby\u2019s sold this painting, the results would\u2019ve been even better.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_54010\" style=\"width: 312px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-16-at-1.50.32-PM.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54010\" class=\"wp-image-54010\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-16-at-1.50.32-PM-300x194.png\" alt=\"An Impressionist painting of haystacks in a field.\" width=\"302\" height=\"195\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-16-at-1.50.32-PM-300x194.png 300w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-16-at-1.50.32-PM-1024x664.png 1024w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-16-at-1.50.32-PM-768x498.png 768w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-2024-05-16-at-1.50.32-PM.png 1188w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 302px) 100vw, 302px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-54010\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Meules \u00e0 Giverny by Claude Monet<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Both Christie\u2019s and Sotheby\u2019s brought in an incredible amount of money, with Sotheby\u2019s successfully selling 587 out of 693 lots across five sales, giving their specialists an 84.7% across-the-board sell-through rate, as well as bringing in a total of $633.37 million w\/p. On the other hand, Christie\u2019s made more money with fewer lots sold. Of the 655 lots to cross the block during the six sales at Christie\u2019s that week, 540 sold, giving them an 82.4% sell-through rate, adding up to $640.2 million w\/p. While the contemporary sales at Christie\u2019s are always exciting, the &#8220;blue chip&#8221; works of art nearly always come from their twice-annual 20th Century evening sales. This is where the week&#8217;s top lot crossed the block: <\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Flowers<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> by Andy Warhol, which hammered at $30.5 million (or $35.5 million w\/p)<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. The 20th Century sales can be a little confusing, however, since Christie&#8217;s tends to shove incredibly different artworks together under the umbrella term of &#8220;20th Century&#8221;. Canvases by Monet, Caillebotte, and Van Gogh are placed in the same category as works by abstract expressionists like Mitchell, De Kooning, and Frankenthaler, pop artists like Warhol and Lichtenstein, minimalists like Robert Ryman, and surrealists like Ren\u00e9 Magritte. They may have needed to pad the sale to make it longer and more substantial, filling it with Impressionist and nineteenth-century Modernist art like Van Gogh&#8217;s <em>Coin de jardin avec papillon<\/em>, which came in second behind the Warhol at $28.5 million (or $33.2 million w\/p).<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_54175\" style=\"width: 278px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Vincent_van_gogh_coin_de_jardin_avec_papillons-scaled.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54175\" class=\"wp-image-54175\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Vincent_van_gogh_coin_de_jardin_avec_papillons-300x238.jpg\" alt=\"A painting of a closeup of bushes and grasses with a butterfly.\" width=\"268\" height=\"213\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Vincent_van_gogh_coin_de_jardin_avec_papillons-300x238.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Vincent_van_gogh_coin_de_jardin_avec_papillons-1024x813.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Vincent_van_gogh_coin_de_jardin_avec_papillons-768x610.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Vincent_van_gogh_coin_de_jardin_avec_papillons-1536x1219.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Vincent_van_gogh_coin_de_jardin_avec_papillons-2048x1626.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 268px) 100vw, 268px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-54175\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Coin de jardin avec papillon<\/em> by Vincent van Gogh<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Sotheby&#8217;s, however, hosted sales specifically dedicated to Impressionist &amp; Modern art. The two sales, May 15th and 16th, brought in over 45% of the money made at Sotheby\u2019s that week. The lots were varied, with <a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/2024\/05\/sothebys-new-york-modern-evening-sale\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the Modern Evening sale<\/a> prominently featuring, in addition to the usual Impressionist masters, many twentieth-century surrealist works by Magritte, Fini, Varo, and others. The day sale, however, featured Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, and Fauvist paintings alongside modern Latin American art, American Impressionist paintings, and sculptures by Henry Moore and Alexander Calder. Among the works featured in these sales was <\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Meules \u00e0 Giverny<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> by Claude Monet, which became the second most valuable lot sold that week when the hammer came down at $30 million (or $34.8 million w\/p).
