Le Violon d’Ingres print produced under artist’s supervision among broad range of work up for auction in Paris
It is one of the most recognisable images of the surrealist movement: a black-and-white photograph by Man Ray of Kiki de Montparnasse with f-shaped sound holes painted on her back representing a violin.
Le Violon d’Ingres, which was produced in 1924 and signed by the US artist, set a record for the most expensive photograph when it sold for $12.4m (£9.8m) at auction in New York in 2022.
