Added color in the upper left? lol

No wonder the price---It's the "impossible to find" one-boob version.

As an amateur fine art connoisseur it has that subtle yet underlined quality I look for in a fine oil painting from a great master…….…boobs.

Somewhere in cyberspace there’s an art chat room with a bunch of guys saying the painting went way to cheap, or saying something doesn’t seem quite right about this sale.

Who knows perhaps there are spats on that board as well? Where folks decide to leave the art hobby and list all their works in the BST.

John, such comments are deliberately obnoxious and should have no place here.

Wonder if there was any shilling - do you think they checked the seller's feedback rating?

Does Christie's accept Paypal?

Just checked VAP (Vintage Art Prices). The highest that Picasso ever previously sold for was $35 million. Draw your own conclusions.

Anyone else think this one should be called "Phallus-Hand In Ear"?

At least one auction house comes to mind that probably could have gotten at least $400 million for that Picasso. I wonder whether Christie's thought to take the painting around to a couple fine-art shows so that interested collectors could see it up close and maybe hold it in their hands. You know, market the painting.
