Curious about what Rockefellers collect, I immediately clicked on the ad for the
upcoming Christie's sale of this collection. Quite impressive, really. There are more than a hundred paintings, all from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, almost all French or American. I don't like all of it but I can see that it is all first-class work, or else by a first-class artist. This is
Paul Signac, Antibes (la pinède), 1917.
Georgia O'Keeffe,
Near Abiquiu, New Mexico, 1931.
There are five Monets; this is
Extérieur de la gare Saint-Lazare, effet de soleil, 1877
Lots of raving from their experts about this Picasso,
The Apple.
Wassily Kandinsky,
Winter Study with Mountain, 1908
Charles Burchfield,
Country Home in Midsummer, 1951.
Juan Gris (1887-1927)
La table de musicien, 1914.
Van Gogh,
Beet Planting.
