  1. Je crois que je suis tombé sur le meilleur site pour présenter une de mes nombreuses œuvres rares, inconnues et, inédite d'un des nombreux grand maître peintre de ma collection comme (Henri Matisse, Rubens, Klimt et plusieurs autres) Intéresser me contacter pour bien se familiariser par vos pratique Long life Soterby's

  2. I love Barker’s charming interactions with his international colleagues. But Courtney Kremers’ jacket is hardly “fuchsia.” Salmon maybe. A muted pink.

  3. Penniless Tibetan thangka and mandala artists would just shake their heads at the sight of Damien Hirst's work selling for 500,000. Just a total rip off of other people's work

  4. What other people would call the shopping list they scribbled out, spilt coffee over and threw in the trash, Twomley calls 'My latest masterpiece.'

  5. imagine if you're a beautiful woman sitting for a portrait by Picasso and after he's spent most of the morning trying to get into your knickers, he finally turns his hand to the painting, and after what feels like an eternity he yells, 'FINISHED!' and you walk around and see what he's done…….how would YOU feel at seeing a couple of triangles stuck to an oblong with 2 eyes pointing in different directions….?

  6. see van Gogh: Phone rises from 13.000.000 to sneaky 13.050.000 and the 'poor' internet guy sees only 14.000.000 as next bidding option. Are there still – even at Sotheby's – problems with irrational/fixed online bidding steps?

  7. Picasso portraits. If the artist didn’t say, how would they know who the painting is of? I’m sure that person looks nothing like that painting. If she/he did it must’ve been a horrible horrible accident or a congenital malformation. Then to survive! My lord!
    Poor artist. Imagine having to dedicate decades of study to learn how to draw, paint, sculpt, history only to end up having to paint like a child would only to satisfy a small group Art critics & advisors trying to earn a commission

  8. Many of the buyers aren't art lovers; they're signature lovers.
    The actual depictions are secondary in value!
    It's all about the prestige of ownership, which seems to go hand in hand with moneyed people who hold little regard for the value of a dollar.
    People who may have a genuine liking for these works will never get own them because they lack the funds.
    The up side lies in the fact that most of the great works can be bought as a print or even replicated, allowing all of us the opportunity of viewing some marvellous painting at an affordable price.
    Many of these auction pieces will be left to rot in a Swiss bank vault anyway!

  9. Please show the work of art that is being sold better, at least 25% of the screen. Preferably live shot with a person standing next to it for size reference. But most importantly, keep it at screen for the whole duration of the bidding and at least 25% size of the screen, preferably even larger. Thank you.

  10. At 1:16:58.8 the online bid for €14M came in, less than half a second before the hammer went down at 1:16:59.2.
    So the auction was still live despite the hammer going down.
    Terrible auctioneer actually.
    It was clear that the online bidder was serious, joining late and going up in increments of €1M, whereas the telephone bidders were taking ages and messing about with €50K.
    She should have given more time for internet bids to come in, any number of connection issues could have hampered the online bidding, yet she gave far more time for telephone bidders to deliberate. As it happened she almost lost her employer, Sotheby's, around a quarter of a million for the sake of half a second.

  11. NFT – Digital Art is the way for today's artists at this point to earn a living. We have some amazing art and artists who are still alive and those should be earning $$$$$ to continue doing the great work and can use some well deserved recognition. Picasso was great but time to move on.
