An uninteresting painting by a very uninspired Théo Van Rysselberghe, who paints this laborious ‘Woman wiping herself’. To cap it all, the painting is unfortunately damaged by a large scratch. Estimated at 8,000/12,000 euros, but is it worth it? Etude Ferri sale, Paris 11 April 2025.

Sold for $5,000 on 28 July in New York, this painting of the painter Théo Van Rysselberghe is NOT by Théo Van Rysselberghe. It is not a forgery but a work by another artist (perhaps his pupil Suzanne Wehler-Schlumberger). An interesting document, executed after the model around the 1920s....

Alain Delon was the proud owner of this fine neo-impressionist canvas from 1892. But this did not persuade buyers to pay the $5 to $7 million expected by Christie’s at its New York sales. This is a new technique used by auction houses to avoid unsold works and bad...
