Van Gogh Found at Flea Market to Sell for Millions

A painting of field workers by Dutch artist Vincent Van Gogh, bought at a flea market 12 years ago for 1,500 euros ($1,800), is expected to fetch up to three million euros ($3.6 million) at an auction in France Saturday.

Organizers of the sale in the small town of Portets in southwestern France are bracing for a flood of visitors.
