They wouldn’t care if it was, it’s used to launder money, not to look good or real

The fine art industry has nothing to do with art and everything to do with money. It's a truly unregulated marketplace, so you can always get a return on investment so long as people think that the painting is valuable.
Question about Islam: Pictures of the Prophet Muhammed aren't okay, but pictures of Christ are?

Why would anyone buy a painting of a bearded Priyanka Vadra for 450 million ? Crazy 😂

Palki should pose for a painting. She could be the Indian Mona Lisa

[sureshshukla]

It was painted by an unknown punjabi master (ji). Its original name is Salvator di mundi (head of salvator)

“Striking image of jesus?” Who said jesus looked like that?

Not surprising; the artists of that time worked with a team of people under them.

If he thinks that is disappointing just wait until he gets his Hunter Biden painting 😂

All painting and Antique Business is fraud, because who ever have the real one, they never sell it..But make replica and sells...

Yet They Boldly Tell Us Poverty Is An Issue...$450 Million On A Painting...

Also the painting was over restored. Look for the before restoration image.

Strange that a Saudi should buy a painting when images are forbidden in Islam and more strange that it has a christian theme

0:20 Jesus was not European. He probably looked like bin Laden 😂

[rogermoore]

You mean my drawing of a stick man is more authentic and more valuable than that picture? 😂😂😂😂

Old Dutch saying when asked “ how much is that worth “ , WHATEVER THE FOOL IS PREPARED TO PAY.

[eagleonoteagle]

I love how you explained it exactly that’s how I feel or you can just learn whoever painted this then .
Someone could just set a new sign under it that says
Leonardo DaVinci and whoever 👌

[richmond]

Mona Lisa would have worn bakra mundi. 😂

It is just a hype created by these western media and western world. In India we have such beautiful paintings and artists, who ever see it has to bow down in respect. From Raja Ravi Varma, to present day artists all their work are mind blowing and have huge respect. India is a treasure in art and culture but western will never realize it.
