A Picasso painting depicting a young nude girl, Fillette a la corbeille fleurie, was among the most expensive items sold on Tuesday night.

Depicting a naked teenage girl with a basket of flowers, “Fillette à la Corbeille Fleurie” is widely acclaimed but, given the cultural #MeToo moment, potentially discomfiting.

It includes Claude Monet’s water-lily painting “Nympheas en fleur,” estimated to sell for $50 million-$70 million, and Pablo Picasso’s “Fillette a la corbeille fleurie,” which has an estimate of $90 million-$120 million.

"This is the reason often historians have thought of the thumb turned down," Corbeille says, but there's evidence that the turn would have gone in the other direction.

On voit au mus�e du Capitole l'effigie bas-relief d'un archigalle, d'un chef de ces pr�tres insens�s, et pr�s de lui les attributs de la d�esse asiatique, les fl�tes, les crotales, et la myst�rieuse corbeille.
