Following the momentum from the landmark Sotheby’s sale,<\/a> Christie\u2019s held its 20th and 21st Century auctions<\/a> in New York on November 20\u201321, 2025. According to Christie\u2019s, the combined sales realized $964,536,953, marking the highest total for this category at the auction house in the past three years. Across both sessions, the auctions achieved a 90% sell-through rate by lot and 96% by value, indicating strong participation relative to the presale estimates.<\/p>\n

\"Mark

Mark Rothko \u2014 No. 31 (Yellow Stripe), 1958<\/p><\/div>\n

The highest-priced work of the week was Mark Rothko\u2019s No. 31 (Yellow Stripe)<\/em><\/a> (1958), which sold for $62,160,000. The next two highest results were identical: Pablo Picasso\u2019s La Lecture (Marie-Th\u00e9r\u00e8se)<\/em><\/a> (1932) and Claude Monet\u2019s Nymph\u00e9as<\/em><\/a> (1907), each selling for $45,485,000. The fourth highest result went to Henri Matisse\u2019s Figure et bouquet<\/a> (T\u00eate ocre)<\/em> (1937), which brought $32,260,000, and rounding out the top five was Piet Mondrian\u2019s Composition with Red and Blue<\/em><\/a> (1939\u20131941), which sold for $23,060,000. Christie\u2019s also reported bidder participation from the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, noting that the buyer and underbidder activity spanned multiple global regions.<\/p>\n

These numbers position the November 2025 series among Christie\u2019s strongest recent auctions for modern and post-war art in terms of overall total, sell-through rate, and international bidding activity. With Rothko\u2019s 1958 canvas leading the week and significant results also achieved for Picasso, Monet, Matisse, and Mondrian, the sale offered a clear benchmark of current confirmed market performance for historically significant 20th-century works.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
