Between JZ’s jet-to-be and the sale of this Amedeo Modigliani nude painting, isn’t your week just looking pretty average? Sold at the auction house, Christie’s on Monday, the work, Nu-Couché, is the second most expensive painting sold at auction.
It’s only one of ten to ever surpass the $100 million figure – along with three by Pablo and three by Giacometti. Although auctioneers were skeptical of the sale of the painting, thinking it too scandalous for art buyers, they were proved wrong.
Now how about getting your hands on your own nude to make your week seem like it matters? It’s easier than you think… Just go buy yourself a few tickets for each of the Megamillions and EuroMillions Lotteries to be drawn tonight which nets around R4 billion – how many nudes can you buy with that?
