Recent strength in the Warhol market, driven by the record $195 million sale of “Shot Sage Blue Marilyn” at Christie’s in September, has buoyed sentiment for the iconic 1964 Flowers series ahead of its October 7, 2026, Sotheby’s Contemporary Curated auction. Multiple 2026 sales of Flowers paintings and prints, including Phillips’ Fiterman collection lots realizing $2.6 million to $7.43 million and a London example fetching $2.4 million, show consistent demand when provenance, scale, and condition are strong, with results frequently meeting or exceeding estimates. Traders are monitoring the specific consignment details, broader Pop Art momentum, and any last-minute shifts in collector appetite, while noting historical volatility tied to authenticity concerns in the secondary market.
