'Lost' painting expected to fetch more than pounds 2m
Walk at Dusk by the German romantic Caspar David Friedrich (1774-1840), which Christie's is to auction in London on 20 May. The painting had not been seen for decades until its continental owner brought it to the auction house this year. It is one of the artist's last works.
