Francis Bacon, Study for a Self-Portrait, 1964, Via Rawartint
A Florida art collector is suing Christie’s New York, after his Self-Portrait by Francis Bacon failed to sell at auction in November 2008. Christie’s had offered collector George Weiss a minimum guarantee, but allegedly refused to follow through after Weiss consigned the work. The auction house alludes to the collapse of the art market in its defense.
