She died of lung cancer in 1978 never having spoken to Capote again. In the fall of 1955, Mrs. Woodward shot and killed her husband at their estate in Oyster Bay, in the middle of the night, believing that he was a burglar. Capote decided it was not, even though someone eventually pleaded guilty to trying to rob the Woodward house on the night of the shooting. In mid-October, just as Capote’s story was set to drop, Mrs. Woodward killed herself in her uptown apartment. While she had had a difficult life and there was no way to know why she did it, many speculated about the correlation.

☆ Picasso’s ‘Guitar on a Table,’ Long Held by MoMA, Sells for $37.1 Million at Sotheby’s

The cubist ‘Guitar on a Table’ was painted by Pablo Picasso in 1919 and acquired by William Paley in 1946. A foundation for CBS founder William Paley has started selling off a trove of masterpieces long lent to New York’s Museum of Modern Art to fund an expansion of the museum’s digital footprint—including a Pablo Picasso that sold Monday for $37.1 million. The sale at Sotheby’s landed a week after Christie’s made auction history selling Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen ’s $1.5 billion art estate. While Mr. Allen’s art stirred up a marketing bonanza, collectors and dealers say they will be seeking clues about the market’s broader strength during these remaining sales in New York’s fall series.
