The work Picasso in bathtub, Villa La Californie, Cannes, 8 February 1956 by David Douglas Duncan was auctioned at Christies in New York in August 2017. It achieved a price of USD 2,750.00 (€ 2,315.20), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 38%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by David Douglas Duncan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Picasso, clad in a bright green terry-cloth robe, confronts the camera on front steps of Chateau de Vauvenargues, which sold at auction in April 2010 for USD 10,625.00 (€ 7,987.52).
