NEW YORK (AP) — A celebrated portrait by Edouard Manet of a Parisian actress in a fancy dress and bonnet is heading to auction and could set a record for the artist.
The French impressionist artist’s widely acclaimed painting “Spring,” presented at the Paris Salon of 1882, is estimated to bring up to $35 million on Nov. 5 at Christie’s. It has been in the same American collection for over a century and on loan at the National Gallery of Art for the last two decades.
