'Re-discovered' Kahlo
November 23 2016
Picture: Sotheby's
On twitter, Sotheby's tells us that the above Frida Kahlo was 're-discovered' just this summer. It sold yesterday for $1.8m. But the catalogue entry states that the picture was illustrated in Kahlo literature in 1998 and 2008. We have to work a lot harder for our re-discoveries in the Old Master world.
