Garbo’s Things Not Alone: For a limited time only, thousands of New Yorkers are walking on Greta Garbo’s rugs, eyeballing her Renoirs and inspecting items that are expected to fetch $20 million when auctioned off this week by Sotheby’s. Garbo’s paintings go on sale today and Wednesday, and her furniture, including a Louis XV chair with a rip in its salmon upholstery, is to be sold Thursday. The Garbo collection will remain on view at the auction house next to the Henry Ford II collection of Impressionist paintings, department store king Jerome Ohrbach’s collection of Monets and Matisses and paintings that belonged to the late violinist Jascha Heifetz. More than 7,000 visitors have viewed the Garbo exhibit since its opening Friday.
