It can't hurt, but I don't know how relevant the one sold at Christie's last night will be to valuing Leon's Braque.
Leon's Braque is a much more important picture with great provenance (having been owned by Sidney Janis).

Note the price on Braque. HG: can you foretell if favorable for the charitable deduction for our Braque?

The artist's 1881 painting of the actress Jeanne Demarsy was bought by the J. Paul Getty Museum for $65.1
