Sotheby’s Paris Impressionniste et Moderne = €19.75m

June 7, 2013 by Marion Maneker

Picasso, Vase-Visage (€100-150k) €385k
Leon Spilliaert, Digue D’Ostende Aux Reverberes (€100-150k) €361k
Joan Miro, Grand Vase (€150-200k) €601k
Giacometti, Figurine (€1-1.5m) €2.67m

Interesting to see that the two strongest selling works in terms of exceeding estimate expectations were examples of pottery from both Picasso and Miro. London’s sale cycle includes a special sale of Picasso ceramics at Christie’s on June 18th which should be interesting to watch.
