Sotheby’s November auction season began with a successful sale of Sydell Miller’s collection, but overall results for the evening were notably less impressive.
The total for both sales reached $268.6 million; however, this figure reflects a significant decline of 42.9% compared to the previous year's combined sales.
The Sydell Miller sale was marked by strong performances, notably including a Degas bronze dancer that sold for $1.3 million, greatly surpassing its estimate.
Francois-Xavier Lalanne's table piece fetched $10 million, illustrating the demand for unique decorative art despite overall tepid auction results.
