27.05.2008 - Three drawings by Goya has been rediscovered

Three exceptional drawings by Goya, the 18th-century Spanish artist, have been rediscovered after 130 years, to the excitement of art historians and collectors.

Such is their importance that they are expected to sell for more than £2 million at Christie's in London this summer.

All trace of the drawings, which had been in one of the artist's sketchbooks, had been lost since they were offered for sale in Paris in 1877. They were among 105 drawings dated back to 1796 and had been collected from sketchbooks whose pages he filled with studies of people in various moods and situations.

They do not relate to any known finished works.
