DESCRIPTION:May 18\, 2026\nAgnes Gund\, an heiress who died last September\
 , at 87\, was a titan of generosity. In fact\, The New York Times once won
 dered if Gund was the last good rich person. She gave away more than 1\,80
 0 works to museums\, and used the $165 million fetched by her most prized 
 Lichtenstein\, Masterpiece\, to fund criminal justice reform. By the end\,
  she said\, almost nothing was left. Still\, there were three works that h
 ung in her Upper East Side apartment: a Mark Rothko\, a Cy Twombly\, and a
  Joseph Cornell. They are now coming to Christie’s on May 18. The headli
 ne lot is Rothko’s No. 15 (Two Greens and Red Stripe)\, a monumental 196
 4 canvas in forest green and indigo anchored by a red-orange stripe. Gund 
 bought the painting directly from the artist in 1967. Estimated to sell fo
 r $80 million\, it has left her apartment only once\, in 1972\, for a one-
 month loan to the Cleveland Museum of Art. The Twombly is estimated to go 
 for $40 to $60 million\, and the estimate for the Cornell\, a 1948 assembl
 age from his “Medici” series\, is $3 to $5 million.
