Discovered during an inventory for insurance expertise, this exceptional set of 10 paintings from the André Lefèvre collection, a prominent collector of modern art from the first half of the 20th century, achieved a historic sale totaling €21.8 million. The collection featured the greatest names in art: Joan Miró, Pablo Picasso, Juan Gris, Fernand Léger, and Henri Laurens. These works were a testament to a taste and spirit passionate about Cubism.

Several spectacular results were achieved: €11.6 million for Blue Star, a key work by Juan Miró that broke all records for the artist’s paintings sold at public auction, €6.2 million for L’Oiseau by the same Miró, €2.2 million for Le Joueur de guitare by Juan Gris, and €607,200 for a gouache and collage by Henri Laurens (a world record)...
