Created in 1948 and measuring nearly 11 feet wide, the work has been part of several significant private collections, including that of Harold Diamond and the experimental photographer Herbert Matter. It has spent most of its time behind closed doors, being publicly exhibited only on a few occasions, most recently at the Whitney Museum in 1977. <\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Number 7A<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> is not as densely layered as some of Pollock\u2019s other work, with the main focus being several large drips and pools of black paint on raw, unprimed canvas. It was one of the artist\u2019s early drip masterpieces, among the first to earn Pollock wider recognition. The painting was estimated to sell in the range of $100 million. The bidding started at $82 million and reached $100 million in less than a minute. Auctioneer Adrien Meyer then served as a sort of tennis referee, bouncing back and forth between a bidder in the room and Christie\u2019s global president Alex Rotter in the phone bank, acting on behalf of a client. After just under seven minutes of bidding, the hammer came down at an astounding $157 million (or $181.2 million with premiums), setting the new auction record for Jackson Pollock.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_57577\" style=\"width: 204px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/2026_nyr_24923_0004a_000_constantin_brancusi_danaide110001_-scaled-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-57577\" class=\"wp-image-57577\" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/2026_nyr_24923_0004a_000_constantin_brancusi_danaide110001_-scaled-1-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"An abstract sculpture of a woman's head.\" width=\"194\" height=\"259\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/2026_nyr_24923_0004a_000_constantin_brancusi_danaide110001_-scaled-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/2026_nyr_24923_0004a_000_constantin_brancusi_danaide110001_-scaled-1-767x1024.jpg 767w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/2026_nyr_24923_0004a_000_constantin_brancusi_danaide110001_-scaled-1-768x1025.jpg 768w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/2026_nyr_24923_0004a_000_constantin_brancusi_danaide110001_-scaled-1-1151x1536.jpg 1151w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/2026_nyr_24923_0004a_000_constantin_brancusi_danaide110001_-scaled-1-1534x2048.jpg 1534w, https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/2026_nyr_24923_0004a_000_constantin_brancusi_danaide110001_-scaled-1.jpg 1918w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 194px) 100vw, 194px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-57577\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Dana\u00efde<\/em> by Constantin Br\u00e2ncu\u015fi<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The other lot with an estimate on request was Constantin Br\u00e2ncu\u015fi\u2019s 1913 sculpture <\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Dana\u00efde<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. According to Christie\u2019s specialists, works by Br\u00e2ncu\u015fi, such as this strip figural sculpture, distill to their essentials by \u201cembrac[ing] universal forms that resonate with a unique and timeless sense of purity\u201d. The bust is said to depict the Hungarian artist Margit Pogany, whom Br\u00e2ncu\u015fi had met in Paris several years before and soon became his muse. The work has had only two owners, changing hands once at Christie\u2019s in 2002, when it sold for $18.16 million w\/p. Like the Pollock, it was also estimated to sell in the region of $100 million. While it hammered slightly short of expectations, it hit the mark once premiums were added in&#8230; nonetheless, this set the artist\u2019s auction record at $93 million (or $107.56 million w\/p).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Several works could have taken the third-place spot, including Picasso\u2019s cubist sculpture <a href=\"https:\/\/www.christies.com\/img\/LotImages\/2026\/NYR\/2026_NYR_24923_0002A_000(pablo_picasso_tete_de_femme014524).jpg?mode=max\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>T\u00eate de femme (Fernande)<\/em><\/a> and Mondrian\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.christies.com\/img\/LotImages\/2026\/NYR\/2026_NYR_24923_0005A_002(piet_mondrian_composition_with_large_red_plane_blue_gray_black_and_yel114802).jpg?mode=max\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Composition with Large Red Plane, Blue, Gray, Black, and Yellow<\/em><\/a>. However, it was Joan Mir\u00f3\u2019s 1924 painting Portrait de Madame K that became the surprise third-place lot. 1924 was a significant year for the artist, as he abandoned the more detailed surrealist style in favor of a \u201cfree-flowing automatic, unconscious, and dream-like approach\u201d. With previous owners including the artist Max Ernst and the collector Ren\u00e9 Gaff\u00e9, the Mir\u00f3 was initially estimated to sell for between $25 million and $35 million.
