Jewellery Painting Soars!
November 15 2024
Picture: Van Ham
Posted by Adam Busiakiewicz:
The following painting catalogued as 'Lavinia Fontana - The Choice of Jewellery. Lady by the Toilet.' soared to 607,200 EUR (including premium) over its 8,000 - 10,000 EUR estimate at Van Ham in Cologne yesterday. Let's wait and see if it turns up anywhere interesting!
Update - the curious thing about this lot (writes Bendor) is that it was catalogued as by an unknown artist at first. Perhaps just to get all our hopes up!
