Pablo Picasso’s 1932 masterpiece Femme A La Montre is set to go on display at Sotheby’s in London and is estimated to fetch in excess of 120 million US dollars (£98 million) at auction.
The work was owned by art patron and collector Emily Fisher Landau and it depicts Picasso’s “golden muse” Marie-Therese Walter, a woman who formed the subject of many of Picasso’s portraits and who was known to have had an affair with the painter.
