I felt like i was in an art museum! What a great top, Jen. Have a happy thursday morning and God bless you. Greetings from Colombia to you as well.

Personally I wouldn't buy a Rothko for myself, because he was a miserable existentialist. If I was this rich I would buy art to give it to museums or keep it where it was, regardless of what it was. This is investing in art to make money, not done for the love of art. It just plays into the hands of philastines who know nothing about art, in particular modern conceptual art. Willem De Kooning's later work shows his terrifying mental disintegration from dementia. 😢 If you want to own affordable art there are art fairs, small galleries and you can also find secondhand prints in many places...I have a beautiful aquatint ( coloured etching technique ) of a goose with an egg, hanging on my bedroom wall along with my own framed collage artworks.

[@danielclaeys7598]

But in a certain way, you do own a Rothko. It's hanging in that space between your ears. Art is the compilation of the artist, the work itself and the perception of society. Without these three things, all art museums would be empty.

You could make a Rothko likeness easier. Not a fan of his art either.

All that money for art. Many artists never saw a penny for their works.

[@SeptemberVirgo39]

Many talented artist dont even recognize nor receive a right amount of money that they deserve to have. Sad Reality, you only recognize by people when youre dead.😢

#7 on your list (VIOLET, GREEN AND RED) painted by MARK ROTHKO in 1951 is worth no more than one dollar and fifty cents. It’s junk like this that makes the art world look like a joke.

[@julianaylor4351]

Clearly you know nothing about modern art, it's about concepts not representation. Get with the early twentieth century; high art as a representation died with the rise of photography. 😁

I rather just take a screenshot and keep it with me.😅🤳🏼🖼️

[@classicerynn8452]

Personal opinion: I just dont find Rothko's work worth that much money. Yes, they were expensive for their time because when they were made, they were seen as 'unique' with simple forms of color, etc. and seen as 'abstract expressions' in the 1950s. But now, anyone could make a likeness and say it was comparable to his original work.

I'm surprised the Klimt wasn't higher- it was a much more intriguing work than most of the others...

[@kleine.5438]

Can you eventually do a part 2 with Monet's artworks and other master painters?

[@melaniesenf7175]

These paintings belong to our history and shouldn’t be auctioned off to some billionaire. They belong in museums for everyone to see and enjoy

Funny that a picture of Jesus was sold to a Muslim's prince.

[@hakimal-hakim8890]

Fِِor your information Jesus is one of the most important prophets to Muslims, although - as I think- this is just a matter of business for this 'Muslim's prince.

N8 : the Nederlands Taxpayers were compelled to buy it, even if everybody was concerned by the costs. As usual the Royal Family decided to acquire it and we had to pay. Very appropriately he was a rich merchant of slaves: so much economic efforts just to let us understand that we, taxpayers, are the slaves and they are the decision makers. The Dutch Lady with that obnoxious English accent had got all the hate, at the time, but the reasons of such reactions, besides inflation, are the feudal rules still applied in the Low Lands. I wish Karma was a real thing... Romantic? a Slaaf Handelaar? You didn't give valuable information about finances for these horrendous ,How should I call it? Dictic? For me it is just another proof art is subjective in its value: everybody who goes to the Rijksmuseum and face these portrait are immediately regretful to have payed the entree ticket, meanwhile they should take it as a lesson of social structure .
