The first auction dedicated to surrealism by Sotheby’s in Paris achieved records, notably thanks to a work by Francis Picabia that sold for 10 million euros.<\/h4>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In Paris, Sotheby<\/strong>‘s first auction dedicated to Surrealist artists was valued at a total of almost 33 million euros<\/strong>, including a painting by the French painter and writer Francis Picabia<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Picabia was the star of the auction, with two paintings, including “Pavonia<\/em><\/strong>“, painted in 1929 and estimated at \u20ac6-8 million. This painting, part of the Transparencies<\/em><\/strong> series, was created for the major decoration project for the Paris flat of art dealer L\u00e9once Rosenberg<\/strong> and was finally sold for 10 million euros<\/strong>, making it the artist’s most expensive work to date. “Nu de dos<\/strong><\/em>“, 1940-1942, was sold for \u20ac3.3 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
