Portugal is hoping a master of surrealism can help taxpayers recoup some of the millions they lost rescuing a failed bank. The government is selling 85 works by Spanish artist Joan Miro that became public property when Banco Portugues de Negocios was nationalized in 2008. Christie's in London, which is handling the two-day sale starting Tuesday, Feb. 4, 2014, describes the collection as &quot;one of the most extensive and impressive offerings of works by the artist ever to come to auction.&quot; (AP Photo/Lefteris Pitarakis, File)
