The story behind the Van Gogh still life that looks destined to become his most expensive Paris painting

Van Gogh's 'Parisian Novels' (November-December 1887) will be the leading lot in the Pritzker sale at Sotheby's, New York on 20 November, with an estimate of $40 million.

The Pritzker collection sale also includes 36 other works estimated at $120 million, featuring pieces by Paul Gauguin and Henri Matisse.

Baltimore Museum of Art to Host Amy Sherald Show After Artist’s Smithsonian Withdrawal

Amy Sherald has moved her touring exhibition "American Sublime" to the Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA) after withdrawing it from the National Portrait Gallery (NPG) over censorship concerns. The show, previously at the Whitney Museum of American Art, will open at the BMA on November 3 and run until April 5, 2026. Sherald pulled the exhibition from the Smithsonian-affiliated NPG after she said the institution wanted to replace her painting "Trans Forming Liberty" (2024), which depicts the Statue of Liberty as a trans woman, with a video providing context on transgender issues. The BMA, which had already planned to honor Sherald with its "Artist Who Inspires" award, will feature works including her portrait of Michelle Obama, "Breonna Taylor" (2020), and the contested painting.

Framing Van Gogh: why the artist did not want to surround his works with gold

London's National Gallery exhibition "Van Gogh: Poets & Lovers" displayed nearly all of its loaned paintings in ornate gilded frames, despite the artist's documented preference for simple, unadorned wooden frames. Van Gogh wrote to his sister Wil questioning the need for gilding, and Paul Gachet Jr., son of the doctor who cared for the artist, called gold frames around Van Gogh's works "an act of moral barbarism." A few exceptions stood out, including six paintings from the Kröller-Müller Museum in Otterlo, which were shown in replica frames based on early 20th-century designs by Jacob van den Bosch, and a Van Gogh from Tokyo's National Museum of Western Art that was reframed in a replica of a frame once owned by Dr. Paul Gachet.

Big Galleries Are Racing to Sign Emerging Artists. It’s Changing Everything

Major blue-chip galleries like Gagosian, Hauser & Wirth, Pace, and White Cube are increasingly signing emerging artists earlier in their careers, bypassing the traditional trajectory where young artists would first develop with smaller galleries over many years. Examples include George Rouy joining Hauser & Wirth at age 30, Pam Evelyn joining Pace at 27, and Sasha Gordon joining David Zwirner in 2024. This shift comes amid a contracting art market where aggregate dealer sales fell 6% between 2023 and 2024, while smaller galleries with turnover under $250,000 saw sales grow 17%. Ultra-contemporary auction sales dropped 37.9% in the same period, signaling a cooling of speculative buying.

Van Gogh’s love of Hiroshige, the Japanese master of the landscape, is reflected in a British Museum exhibition

The British Museum's exhibition "Hiroshige: Artist of the Open Road" (through September 7) showcases over 100 prints by the Japanese master Utagawa Hiroshige, including rare loans that highlight his influence on European avant-garde artists. A key display is Vincent van Gogh's own copy of Hiroshige's "The Plum Garden at Kameido" (1857), on loan from the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, along with Van Gogh's squared-up tracing used for his painting. New research by British Museum senior scientist Capucine Korenberg reveals a short pencil line on the print that confirms Van Gogh used this exact copy as a guide for his tracing and subsequent painting.
