"Matisse's flirty 1942 portrait of an Italian countess decked out in a blue tutu, Danseuse dans le fauteuil, sol en damier, fetched US$20.8 million." from South China Morning Post

"The work had appeared twice at auction at Sotheby's in London in the past decade, fetching US$7.5 million in 2000 and US$21.7 million in 2007.

Another Matisse, the 1934 portrait of model Titine Trovato that failed to sell at Sotheby's in November 2008, against an estimate of US$18 million, was offered again last week with a lower estimate of US$8 million. It didn't get a single bid."
