In the Saleroom: Pierre Bonnard's Terrasse à Vernon

Description

The top lot of London's Impressionist & Modern Evening Sale on February 9, 2011 was Terrasse à Vernon by Pierre Bonnard which realized £7,209,250 ($11,578,056), a new world record price for the artist at auction. A masterclass in colourist painting executed in 1923, it was one of only 3 works that Bonnard selected to be exhibited at the Salon d’Automne that year where it was very well received. (RT: 7:34)
