The highest known prices paid for paintings. Earliest painting sold (Vase with Fifteen Sunflowers by Vincent van Gogh) is from 1987, and more than tripled the previous record price, set only two years before, introducing a new era in top painting prices. The sale was also significant in that for the first time a “modern” painting (from 1888) became the record holder, as opposed to the old master paintings which had always previously held it. Since that time sales of the most valuable paintings have usually been made at auctions, though that had by no means always been the case before, and some “private sales”, including the four most expensive. Current record price for a painting was paid for “The Card Players” by Artist Paul Cézanne, which was sold for more than $250 million in 2011.
