Another masterpiece - the large-scale portrait entitled Homme et Enfant - sold for $24.4m.
"At nearly 2m tall, the 1959 work is a hugely impressive example of Picasso's achievements during this important stage in his career," the auction house, Sotheby's, said.Also included in the sale were Nature morte au panier de fruits et aux fleurs , which was painted by Picasso during the Nazi occupation of Paris in 1942. It sold for $16.6m.
"Despite the destruction and hardship of World War Two, the years between 1940-44 resulted in one of Picasso's richest periods," Sotheby's said.The collection was started more than 20 years ago by the American casino mogul Steve Wynn, the former owner of the Bellagio Hotel.

Amuses me that 'At nearly 2m (6.5ft) tall' the attributes of a Picasso are reduced to .......big!
Fuck that. Just drop a few hits of acid. You'll see better stuff than this Picasso crap and save $110 million.
I’m holding out for a hunter Biden masterpiece “piece of art”.
Looks like shit
110m for his early, kindergarten works? So how much would cost Picasso's mature paintings?
Power of sustained hype ...
They do say art is subjective

If Pablo Picasso was still alive he would be 140 tomorrow.
My kids can do better pictures, but it's all about the name....which is the same for everything.
Why buy art when you can steal old people's houses like principalguardiansusangraham does over the NSW Public TnG? NCATNSW
