Fall 2005 auction results
When reviewing the lots in last week's auctions, I must admit there was little that really jumped out at me. Overall, I think that reaction was right, but in several specific instances it was dead wrong. ArtNet has a wrap-up of the auction results and there were some unbelievable prices set out there for early 20th century work. An Edward Weston photo, The Breast, set the 20th C. record and came about two hundred grand shy of the all time record at $722k.
