          People stand in front of Cy Twombly, "Untitled", part of The Macklowe Collection, at Sotheby's on November 5, 2021 in New York City. - After more than a year, in-person auctions are returning to New York this week with the sale of the exceptional Macklowe collection, reputed to be the most expensive in the world to come onto the market -- and buyers are champing at the bit after the pandemic. At renowned auction houses Christie's and Sotheby's, the message is the same: the art market is doing very well. With fall sales estimated to bring in more than $1 billion in a week, starting on November 15, "this is our largest sale season that we've presented since 2015," a record year, said Brooke Lampley, president of the fine arts department at Sotheby's.
