National Gallery of Canada puts Chagall masterpiece on the auction block

Marc Chagall's The Eiffel Tower

A sublime oil painting by Marc Chagall, owned by the people of Canada since 1956, is going up for auction in New York next month as the National Gallery of Canada rejigs its art-retention policies. The proceeds - perhaps as much as US$9 million - will go to buy more art. One art critic calls a move a "monumental stupidity."
