BRITAIN-MICHELANGELO SOTHEBY'S

Art experts admire Michelangelo's previously unknown study of "mourning woman" at Sotheby's auction house in London 04 July 2001. The drawing, a three-quarter length view of a woman, is thought to have been made early in the artist's career between 1495 and 1505. It was discovered in an album of otherwise undistinguished old masters drawings in a library at Castle Howard in Yorkshire, England. The drawing, which is expected to fetch £6-8 million, is to be offered in a sale of Old Master Drawings 11 July.
