Christies Photographs sales this spring will be led by a diverse array of images by the 20th centurys most prominent masters, from vintage Brassai abstractions completely new to the market to the innovations of contemporary British photographer Christopher Bucklow. The sale at Rockefeller Center, to be held on April 18, will include works by many of the same artists whose works captured the markets attention at Christies sales last fall, including Diane Arbus, Harry Callahan, Walker Evans and Karl Struss.

Among the sales top lots are Andre Kerteszs Chairs of Luxembourg Gardens (estimate: $100,000-150,000), a 1925 vintage print on the characteristic carte-postale paper, and Diane Arbuss 1967 Twins, Roselle, New Jersey (estimate: $120,000-180,000), a print of which sold last October at Christies for $270,000, a record price for the artist at auction.
