Картина на Едвард Мунк продадена за рекордна сума Космическата сума беше достигната само за 12 минути по време на търга, в който наддаваха 7 души. По традиция, името на купувача остана тайна. Тобиас Мейер, организатор на търга: - Бързаме да кажем, че тази картина постави световен рекорд за цена на произведение на изкуството продадено на търг. Точната сума е 119 милиона и 900 хиляди щатски долара. Досега рекордът принадлежеше на творбата на Пикасо "Гол модел, зелени листа и бюст", продадена през 2010 г. от Кристис за над 106 милиона долара. Продадената тази нощ картина е пастелен вариант на прочутото платно от 1895 година на норвежкия експресионист. Тази версия беше единствената от общо четири, която все още беше собственост на частно лице. В продължение на четири десетилетия е била притежание на семейството на бизнесмена Петер Олсен, чийто баща Томас е бил съсед, а после покровител и приятел на Мунк. Петер Олсен, продавач на картината: - "Викът" е картина за тревожността, за приближаването и очакването на смъртта. Собственоръчно изписаната от Мунк поема на рамката завършва с думите "Великият вик в природата". Това, което отличава продаденеата картина от останалите три, са изписаните върху рамката думи от поема, вдъхновила творбата. Между 1893 г. и 1910 г. Мунк рисува четири версии на тази картина, превърнала се в символ на универсалния ужас. Останалите версии принадлежат на музей и галерии в Осло.

Edvard Munch's masterpiece painting, "The Scream", has been auctioned off at Sotheby's. The identity of the buyer remains a secret. An art collector has surely gotten a masterpiece in the form of Edvard Munch's famous painting, "The Scream". "The Scream" depicts a man screaming and it compares to the fame of Mona Lisa. According to details, "The Scream" was sold on Wednesday for a record price of $119,922,500 at the auction in New York. The entire auction was handled by Sotheby's and the auction price also includes a cut for the auctioneer. The previous auction record was with Picasso's "Nude, Green Leaves and Bust", and it was sold for an amount of $106.5 million at Christie's in 2010. Edvard Munch created "The Scream" in 1895. Three other versions of it also exist. This particular version which was sold off at the auction was made from crayon on paper and it is considered one of the brightest and liveliest versions. In this auction, the buyer's name and other details have been kept confidential, as it was requested by the buyer. When "The Scream" was brought into the room, it was heavily guarded. Two guards stood beside it, one on each side. The bidding for 'The Scream' started at $40 million and at that point, seven buyers showed their interest to buy. The auction eventually boiled down to two bidders, both of whom were bidding from phone. The auction price was finally achieved after waiting for 12 minutes after the last bid. Edvard Munch was a Norwegian expressionist painter, whose most famous work came out to be "The Scream". The image has been used by many, and it has become part of modern culture. This particular piece is the only version whose frame was hand-painted by the artist himself and it includes his poem which detailed his work and its inspiration. This piece was previously owned by Norwegian businessman Peter Olsen, whose father was a friend and patron of Edvard Munch. Olsen said that he was prepared to sell this piece as he felt that the world was ready to own and appreciate this remarkable work. The proceeds from the auction of "The Scream" will go towards the building of a new museum, art center and hotel in Hvitsten, which is a city in Norway and where the artist and Olsen's father were neighbors.
