Picasso’s iconic portrait of his greatest muse Dora Maar sparked a thrilling bidding battle in its auction debut at #SothebysLondon. Nine bidders drove this masterpiece from The Lewis Collection to £23.9 million. Created in 1938, ‘Buste de femme’ is one of Picasso’s most tender and candid portraits of Dora Maar—the woman whose startling beauty and fierce intelligence was to inspire the creation of some of the greatest portraits of the artist's career.
