An auction of delightful breadth and occasional audacity, this sale pairs strong American works—led by William Sommer—with European paintings, decorative arts, and a surprising modern edge (yes, even Pablo Picasso makes an appearance). From scholarly landscapes to exuberant abstraction, plus furniture, silver, and more glass goblets than one could reasonably need, the offering is equal parts refinement and temptation—best approached with discernment and a paddle at the ready.
