Philocale, from France, sells on 30 January 2016 a "French School, 18th century" Diana at her bath, estimated at 1,700 to 2,500 Euro.
It is a typical rosy-coloured pleasing but not really challenging picture, but the composition seems to be better than the pictorial qualities (which are good but not really brilliant).
Turns out that it is a reverse and reduced copy of an Antoine Coypel work from the Epinal Art Museum, with some changes to the background mainly.
I guess the work isn't worth more than the estimate, considering the above.
