- <p> The big-bucks art market is going to hell in a hand basket
- when dealers give HENRI MATISSE the brush-off. The great
- Impressionist's La Robe Persane, valued at a minimum $5 million,
- was sold at Sotheby's to an unnamed private collector for only
- $4.1 million. Even the usually art-hungry Japanese stayed home--a case of male shogunism if there ever was one.
