NEW YORK, NY -- Competitive bidding drove outstanding results at Doyle’s auction of Fine Art: 19th Century & Early Modernism on December 9, 2025. The sale showcased an exciting diversity of paintings, prints and sculpture spanning Academic and Barbizon works through Impressionism and Post-Impressionism to German Expressionism and early Modernism. With a wide range of artwork offered at accessible price points, the popular Fine Art auction category continues to present exciting opportunities for both seasoned buyers and new collectors alike.

Highlighting the sale was an oil on canvas by French artist Jean Jules Louis Cavailles (1901-1977) that sailed past its estimate of $5,000-8,000 to achieve an impressive $41,600 amid trans-Atlantic bidding. A particularly delightful scene from The Collection of Lucille Coleman, Fenêtre a Cannes depicted a sunny harbor viewed through an open window over colorful flowers. Lucille Coleman was a gracious presence in New York’s philanthropic and cultural circles. Known for her exceptional taste and quiet generosity, she brought elegance to every endeavor—from her thoughtful collecting to her steadfast support of charitable organizations. Among her many philanthropic commitments, she maintained a decades-long relationship with NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, which honored her contributions by naming a residential tower on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Her collection reflected a life dedicated to beauty, legacy and meaningful engagement with the world around her.

The sale also saw strong results for works by Arik Brauer, Bernard Buffet, Georges D'Espagnat, Pedro Figari, Charles Jones, Boris Margo, Hugues Claude Pissarro, Antonio Maria De Reyna Manescau and Henry Scott, among many others.
