Christie’s is selling a Warhol Coke bottle with a $40m estimate this November. The work was bought by the Mugrabis from SI Newhouse in 1995 and follows the sale of another version a few years ago to Steven Cohen,. Although the bidding on Cohen’s version was subdued and the Warhol market has lacked top-notch material, Bloomberg marks this as one to watch:
“I don’t think it needed a guarantee,” said Alberto Mugrabi. “There’s only one other example of this painting; it belongs to Stevie Cohen.”
