It wasn’t too long ago that Pierre Bergé decided to put up for auction his and fashion legend Yves Saint Laurent’s private art collection. The event which took place earlier this week at the Grand Palais in Paris has shocked the art world, as many works more than tripled their initial estimated worth. The most outstanding sale was the ‘Dragon Chair’ made of leather and wood by Eileen Gray, which smashed its estimate of €3 million to be sold at €19.5 million! Bergé says money made from the auction will go towards funding aids research.
