Rockefeller Works Go On Display in Hong Kong

With the Salvator Mundi sale receding into the past, Christie’s is getting geared up for the big event of 2018, the sale of David Rockefeller’s art and collectibles which promises to deliver exciting revelations. Hong Kong is the next stop on Christie’s sales calendar as the Autumn auction cycle begins this weekend. There Christie’s will put works from the Rockefeller estate on display including a Matisse they will be asking the highest price ever for:

The first highlights include masterpieces of Impressionist and Modern Art, including a Rose Period Picasso selected by Peggy and David Rockefeller from Gertrude Stein’s collection (estimate in the region of $70 million),Claude Monet’s Nymphéas en fleur, painted circa 1914-1917 (estimate in the region of $35 million), and a sumptuous 1923 reclining nude by Matisse that is poised to reset the artist’s record high price at auction (estimate in the region of $50 million).
