Bacon self-portrait could fetch up to €18m at NY auction
It will be the first big test of the auction market for contemporary art after a record week in New York in November.
Sotheby’s 56-lot auction on Feb 12 carries a minimum valuation of $101m, the highest figure for one of the company’s February London contemporary sales since the previous art market boom of 2008, the New York-based company said yesterday in an email.
