Posted by Adam Busiakiewicz:

A rare and very sketchy painting of a dog by Édouard Manet is coming up for sale at the French auction house Drouot next month. This pet, owned by the daughter of a Paris innkeeper Marguerite Lathuille, was supposedly completed in a mere twenty minutes. It has remained in the same family's collection until now.

The painting will be sold on 26th February 2021 with an estimate of €220,000 - €280,000.
