A very rarely seen painting by the British artist Walter Sickert, which was once owned by the Hollywood "gangster" actor Edward G. Robinson, is going on sale in London on 26 September. Ennui (1913) is one of five Sickert oils of the same name that were made in in the 1910s-each depicting a pub landlord with his wife. Three of the works are held by British galleries.
