Sotheby’s presents its November season, highlighted by collection of Sydell Miller

NEW YORK, NY.- Sotheby’s unveiled the full offerings for the November Marquee auction series in New York, the exhibitions of which will open on 8 November. Headlining the week’s sales is the esteemed collection of entrepreneur and philanthropist Sydell Miller. Presented in landmark Evening and Day sales, the collection reflects how Sydell Miller surrounded herself with beauty in all of its forms – where fine art and important design coexisted in harmony. Encompassing masterpieces of Modern and Contemporary art, sculpture, and icons of design, this collection unites the finest works across periods, styles, and forms: from an enthralling example of Monet’s iconic Nymphéas (estimate on request) to Kandinsky’s explosion of geometric exuberance (est. $15-20m); from Picasso’s first depiction of a female artist (estimate on request) to an elegant Matisse portrait from wartime France (est. $3-5m); from an extraordinary work by Yves Klein executed at the height of his career (est. $8-12m); to unique and defining commissions by François-Xavier and Claude Lalanne, and emerging Contemporary designers, including Robert Goosens and Joseph Walsh. Sotheby’s will also present fashion from the Collection of Sydell Miller on 8-26 November, with additional sales of jewelry, objet, furniture and decorative arts to come in December.
