Love this Picasso

From The Art Newspaper "The collection at Sotheby’s will be led by Femme à la montre (1932), Pablo Picasso’s portrait of his muse Marie-Thérèse Walter, painted just after his affair with the young woman became public. Landau purchased the painting in 1968, and it hung above the mantel in her New York home for years, according to Sotheby’s specialists. Femme à la montre is estimated to sell in excess of $120m."
