Modern Art & Design Spring 2026
Highlights from This Spring’s Modern Art and Design
Modern Art & Design was marked by successful results in both art and design. The auction presented a carefully curated catalogue and demonstrated a continued strong market for both Swedish and international artists and designers. Highlights included SEK 13 million results for works by, among others, Einar Jolin, Nils von Dardel, and Fernand Léger, as well as a world record for a rediscovered writing desk by Carl Hörvik.
