Sotheby's has won the rights to sell the highly sought-after Macklowe art collection, valued at more than $600 million, the auction house announced Sept. 9.

The trove, which includes works by Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol and Mark Rothko, was the subject of a bitter legal dispute following the high-profile divorce of New York real estate developer Harry Macklowe and his ex-wife Linda.

A mixed-media painting attributed to Pablo Picasso has been sold after spending 50 years in a closet in a house in Maine.

Pablo Picasso's "Woman Sitting Near a Window (Marie-Therese)" sold on May 13 for $103.4 million at Christie's in New York, the auction house said.
