LONDON, Feb. 5 (UPI) -- Claude Monet's "Dans La Prairie," an oil painting of the artist's wife Camille reading in a field of wildflowers, has sold for $16 million at auction in London.
The BBC said the sale fell short of the artwork's estimated price of $22 million at Christie's sale of Impressionist and Modern art.
