Décembre 1937, Picasso peint un portrait de sa muse Marie-Thérèse Walter, mère de sa fille Maya. L'oeuvre est vendue aux enchères de Sotheby's London le 28 février 2018... pour un prix estimé à 50 millions de dollars.

Des questions auxquelles répond Thomas Bompard, directeur de la vente du Soir chez Sotheby's. Plus d'info www.culturealt.com
