This season's New York auction marathon came to a close with Sotheby's US$210 million Contemporary Art Evening Sale.

Amongst 27 lots offered, only one was unsold, bringing in a total hammer price of US$181 million – higher than its presale low estimate of US$170 million.

The sale's top lot was Francis Bacon's Study of Red Pope 1962. 2nd Version 1971 – the only painting by the British figurative painter depicting both the Pope and his lover, George Dyer – which realised US$46.2 million after fees.
