On Tuesday, June 21, an important portrait by Amedeo Modigliani will be offered at Sotheby’s Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale in London. The work, which depicts the artist’s muse, Jeanne Hébuterne, has been in a private collection for the past thirty years. The masterpiece is expected to fetch in excess of $40 million—a far cry from Modigliani’s $170 million auction record, which was set in 2015 at Christie’s.
