Now , this amount is an absolute record for art sold at public auction . So ? Munch Picasso's " ahead "?
Yes, "Nude on a background of green leaves and bust " Picasso sold for 106.5 million
Like, at auction more pictures no one has bought .

But this is only the "Scream" such a price , because the iconic work, other works by Munch , should be cheaper. Is that right?

[Кирилл Сызранский]

Bidding on the "Scream" took just 12 minutes:

Total Munch made four versions of "Scream": two oil-painted, two - pastel. Put up for auction is a pastel version, and this is only one of the "Scream", which is stored in private hands. All the rest are in museums in Norway: 2 versions, made with pastels and oils, are in the Munch Museum in Oslo, another "Scream" made with oil, is here at the National Gallery.

In the version sold in New York, a special story. It belonged to Thomas Fredrik Olsen, owner of the Norwegian shipping company Fred. Olsen & Co. He was a friend of Munch, the artist even painted a portrait of his wife Henrietta, only Olsen has collected about 30 works by Munch. During the Second World War, when the occupation of Norway was imminent, above collections in mortal danger: the Nazi authorities have recorded works by Munch in the category of "degenerate art" and confiscated all his works from German museums. Olsen hid his collection in the barn for hay, where it was kept until 1945. After his death the owner of the painting was Henrietta, and then after the trial with his brother Fredrik in 2001 it became the owner of the youngest son of Thomas Fredrik Olsen Petter. The motive that made it now sell the painting, it sounds a little strange: the money he supposedly needed to build a museum in the city Hvistene, the home of Munk Olsen, and to then put it in the rest of his property Munch painting.

It is said that this work was originally called "The Scream of Nature ."
Munch himself in 1892, described the feeling has arisen at a time like this:

« I was walking along a path with two friends - the sun was setting - suddenly the sky turned blood red , I paused , feeling exhausted, and leaned on the fence - I looked at the blood and tongues of fire above the blue- black fjord and the city - my friends walked on, and I stood there , trembling with emotion , feeling an endless scream piercing nature . »

It is known that at the end of 1883 the sky over Europe at the time of sunset colored red due to the effects of emission of ash during the eruption of the volcano Krakatoa in Indonesia.
