The New York Sales at Sotheby's run concurrently with Christie’s Spring Marquee Week auctions and offer a similar lineup of storied masterpieces and works seemingly handpicked for the serious (and wealthy) art collector. The lineup of auctions of works from the 19th, 20th and 21st Centuries kicks off on May 13 with the Now Evening Auction and runs through the Modern Day Auction on May 16. Across the sales, several career-defining masterworks and rare-yet-recognizable pieces stand out.
