A French auction house is selling a work by Picasso that has not been seen in public for more than 80 years. Buste de femme au chapeau à fleurs (Dora Maar) [Bust of a Woman in a Flowery Hat], which depicts the artist's lover Dora Maar, goes under the hammer at the Drouot salesroom in Paris on 24 October. The work, which has been in a private collection since 1944, has an estimate of €8m.
