Das Ölgemälde von 1940, das die Künstlerin schlafend in einem schwebenden Himmelbett zeigt, übertrifft Georgia O'Keeffes Rekord von 44,4 Millionen Dollar und markiert den höchsten Preis für lateinamerikanische Kunst. #FridaKahlo #Auktion #Sothebys #Kunstmarkt
BREAKING: A Gustav Klimt portrait sells for a historic $236.4 MILLION at Sotheby's!
His painting "Portrait of Fräulein Lieser" has just become the most expensive modern art piece ever sold at auction. The masterpiece, completed just two years before his death, sparked a fierce 20-minute bidding war before going to an anonymous buyer. Klimt's genius continues to break records, over a century later.
