Christie\u2019s big 20th and 21st century art sales in\u00a0London\u00a0this year will be led by two landscapes: a dynamic and passionate\u00a0Francis Bacon<\/a>\u00a0and a wistful Monet, both of which have not been seen at auction in quite some time.<\/p>\n

The Bacon,\u00a0Landscape near Malabata, Tangier<\/em>\u00a0(1963), is estimated at \u00a315 million-\u00a320 million. It was painted as a tribute to Peter Lacy, with whom the artist had a years-long\u00a0passionate, and often abusive, relationship.<\/p>\n

Bacon made the painting in London, just one year after\u00a0Lacy died<\/a>\u00a0tragically in Tangiers at 46. The painting has remained in the same collection for more than 20 years. When it last sold at auction, at Sotheby\u2019s New York for $517,000 in 1985, it became the most expensive Bacon ever sold. (Today, Bacon\u2019s auction record is for the 1969 picture\u00a0Three Studies of Lucian Freud<\/em>, which sold at Christie\u2019s New York for $142.4 million in 2013.)<\/p>\n

The Bacon painting was originally sold by Marlborough Gallery in 1963 and, according to Christie\u2019s, has been on view in 32 exhibitions across 27 cities worldwide, including the 1971\u201372 retrospective at the Grand Palais in Paris and the Royal Academy of Arts\u2019s \u201cFrancis Bacon: Man and Beast\u201d in 2022.<\/p>\n

Monet\u2019s\u00a0Matin\u00e9e sur la Seine,<\/em>\u00a0temps net<\/em>\u00a0(1897) is among the 21 pictures that make up the artist\u2019s \u201cMornings on the Seine\u201d series. Each work in it focuses of the same section of the famous river at different times of the day.<\/p>\n

Estimated to bring in \u00a312 million-\u00a318 million,\u00a0Matin\u00e9e sur la Seine,<\/em>\u00a0temps net<\/em>\u00a0is coming to auction for the first time in 45 years.<\/p>\n

The work was made in Monet\u2019s\u00a0bateau-atelier<\/em>\u00a0(studio-boat) in the middle of the river that snaked through Giverny, the countryside village where Monet created some of his most recognized works, including the\u00a0\u201cNymph\u00e9as<\/a>\u201d\u00a0<\/em>(Water Lilies)\u00a0series.<\/em><\/p>\n

Matin\u00e9e sur la Seine, temps net<\/em>\u00a0was last exhibited in 1990 as part of the \u201cMonet in the \u201890s: The Series Paintings,\u201d held at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston,\u00a0the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Royal Academy of Arts in London.<\/p>\n

The Bacon painting will be on display at Christie\u2019s New York through February 19, and both pictures will be on display at Christie\u2019s London<\/a> from March 1 through 7.<\/p>\n
