A long-hidden Picasso portrait of muse Dora Maar has sold for 32 million euros at an auction in Paris. The vividly hued portrait had remained out of view for more than eight decades in a family collection. Auctioneer Christophe Lucien called Friday's sale to a buyer in the room “an enormous success." Painted in July 1943, “Bust of a Woman with a Flowered Hat (Dora Maar)” depicts Maar in a brightly colored floral hat. She had been the artist’s muse for about seven years, and the relationship was coming to a painful close. The work was purchased in 1944 and had not been on the market since.
I was so worried I was gonna wake up in a country headed by a sociopath with dementia who has concepts of plans that will affect huge parts of my life and who didn't know what NATO was until last Thursday.
And who, during his victory speech, would go on and on about how neat it is that Elon's rockets go up and come down.
Oh, and I also got my wish: an anti-vaxxer brainworm-host is going to make America Polio-ish Again.
Half of this country has no idea what it just did.
