An Andy Warhol painting of actress Dame Elizabeth Taylor has been sold for $23.7m (£11.4m) at a New York auction.
An anonymous bidder bought the 1963 portrait, called Liz, which had been expected to fetch more than $25m (£11.9m) at Christie's.
The auction house refused to confirm reports that it was British actor Hugh Grant who sold the portrait after he bought it in 2001 for $15m (£7.2m).
Nice to know some still have cash! I'd rather have a Dennis McCann portrait from the NeoCon series. Maybe even a million less than Marilyn. He is on my friends list, that counts, right? How many friends could Dennis have? *smirk*
Does anyone know someone with a lazy $3 million to spend on a painting?
