In return, Paz promised to let through a law that would permit Patiño to divorce his first wife, Princess Maria Cristina de Borbón (a niece of Spain's last monarch, Alfonso XIII), and clear up any bigamous misgivings over the status of Patiño's second wife, Beatriz María Julia de Rivera Degeon...

Signed color lithographs by Dubuffet and Braque sold for $45 and $75 at the University of Chicago show.

The Associated American Artists started with Raphael Soyer at $14.75, and its unsigned prints included a $19.50 Manet, a $32.50 Chagall, a $40 Renoir, a $70 Cézanne, a $190 Rouault...
