Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Canclini at none against Sotheby's's shown. Canclini also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.4). Sotheby's's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 28 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
