Rare Signacs Anchor a $60 Million Christie's Sale

· 1 min read

A single-owner collection of modernist art carrying an estimate of $60 million is heading to auction at Christie's. The seller has chosen to remain anonymous, and the sale's top lots come from Paul Signac, the neo-Impressionist painter whose work rarely surfaces on the market in this quantity. The Signacs sit at the center of a broader trove of modernist pictures being offered together, giving bidders an unusual chance to pursue his paintings in depth rather than one at a time.

With reporting from Artnet News.
