    Painted in a fever of activity Fleurs dans un verre by Vincent van Gogh will highlight Sotheby’s evening sale of Impressionist and Modern Art in New York on October 28.  This is one of about 70 canvases completed by van Gogh in the 70 days before his suicide in the village of  Auvers. It is estimated at $14-18 million.  The online auction will feature works from the Brooklyn Museum including a Monet and Surrealist art by Man Ray, Giorgio de Chirico and Rene Magritte.  The evening of exciting sales will kick off with a Contemporary Art sale highlighted by a 1958 Mark Rothko which pre-empts his celebrated Seagram Building murals now at the Tate in London.  Untitled (Black on Maroon) is estimated at $25-$35 million.
