One of the last portraits painted by Pablo Picasso is to go on display at Sotheby’s auction house in London.
Dora Maar With Cat, which depicts one of the Spanish artist’s many lovers, is expected to fetch $50m (£28.5m) when it goes on sale in New York on 3 May.
The 1941 artwork will become one of the 10 most expensive paintings ever sold if it commands that price.
