Selection of Vladimir Tretchikoff’s paintings

Russian artist Vladimir Tretchikoff’s original painting of the “Chinese Girl” will go under the hammer in London on March 20.

The BBC reported the portrait of a young Chinese girl, believed to be the most reproduced print in the world, could fetch up to 500,000 pounds, or nearly $800,000.

GlobalPost has selected 10 paintings by the late artist, including 'Chinese Girl,' which adorns millions of sitting-room walls around the world.
