Leonardo da Vinci's 'Salvator Mundi' | 2017 World Auction Record | Christie's
The breathtaking $450 million (including buyer's premium) sale of Salvator Mundi generates headlines across the world, garlanding a superb week of sales in which nine works realise more than $10 million, a further eight surpass $20 million, and three works fetch over $50 million.
An historic season at Christie’s in New York finished on Thursday, with the final total across seven sales hitting $1,421,993,000 / £1,082,817,271. The highlight was the extraordinary 19-minute bidding battle for Leonardo da Vinci’s Salvator Mundi in Wednesday’s Post-War and Contemporary Art Evening Sale, culminating in the work being sold for a world-auction record price of $450,312,500 (including buyer’s premium).

Is "Salvator Mundi" a real Leonardo da Vinci painting?
Two years ago, the painting titled “Salvator Mundi,” set a record as the most expensive piece of art ever sold at an auction. The image of Jesus is one of fewer than two dozen works attributed to renaissance master Leonardo da Vinci. But in a new book, one author paints a different picture, questioning if the painting is a genuine Leonardo. Author Ben Lewis joins "CBS This Morning Saturday."

What Made The Da Vinci Painting Worth $450 Million (HBO)
After nearly 20 minutes of nail-biting bidding on Wednesday night, Leonardo da Vinci’s painting Salvator Mundi, shattered the world record for the most expensive work of art ever sold at auction. Including fees, the 500-year-old rare masterpiece sold for $450.3 million.
Some questioned the authenticity of the painting as truly Da Vinci but with a price tag that far surpassed initial estimates the concern now seems irrelevant.
Before the sale, Vice News Tonight went to Christie's for a private viewing of Salvator Mundi with contemporary Brazilian artist Vik Muniz.

Why The World's Most Expensive Painting Has Gone Missing (HBO)
Last November, a painting said to be a lost work of Leonardo da Vinci went on sale at Christie’s New York. The work, “Salvator Mundi,” depicts Christ holding a crystal sphere in his left hand and offering a benediction with his right. Bidding started with a guaranteed lowest bid of $100 million; 19 minutes later, it sold for $450,312,500 — becoming the most expensive painting ever sold.
Salvator Mundi literally means “Savior of the World,” and it’s believed to be one of fewer than 20 da Vinci paintings in existence. But while a chorus of scholars have attested to its genuineness, not everyone is convinced it's a Leonardo original.
Among the skeptics is New York Magazine and Vulture’s senior art critic Jerry Saltz. He claims that the style of the work doesn’t make sense, given the artisti...

Salvator Mundi (2011) Documentary
This fascinating documentary has been hiding in my files for seven years. I think it may well be the very first one that discusses Leonardo's "lost" painting (including its 'restoration') in detail and given its November 2017 Christie's auction I think it immediately deserves more publicity. The copy is NOT perfect but it is perfectly clear. It is what it is in that it contains many wonderful (new) insights into this amazing painting. ENJOY!

Who is the Mysterious Bidder Who Bought da Vinci Painting for $450M?
More from Inside Edition: https://www.youtube.com/user/cbstvdinsideedition?sub_confirmation=1
A painting from Leonardo da Vinci is the most expensive work of art ever sold. The intense bidding war broke out on the phone at Christie’s auction house in New York Wednesday, where it sold for $400 million plus $50 million in fees. Da Vinci created the painting of Jesus more than 500 years ago for the king of France. It was lost for more than two centuries. In 1958 it was sold for $60 to a private collector from Louisiana. In 2005, an art collector acquired it at an estate sale for $10,000. #InsideEdition

The Discovery & Restoration of Leonardo da Vinci's Long-Lost Painting "Salvator Mundi" | Robb Report
Leonardo da Vinci is one of history's greatest artists and thinkers. Only about 15 of his paintings are known to exist and one was thought to be lost forever. Leonard painted that masterpiece, called "Salvator Mundi" (Savior of the World) around 1500. It was owned by no less than three kings and, in 1763, it disappeared. This video tells the story of that incredible painting, how it was rediscovered in 2005, and what happened when it went to auction at Christie's in November 2017.

Last November, a painting said to be a lost work of Leonardo da Vinci went on sale at Christie’s New York. The work, “Salvator Mundi,” depicts Christ holding a crystal sphere in his left hand and offering a benediction with his right. Bidding started with a guaranteed lowest bid of $100 million; 19 minutes later, it sold for $450,312,500 — becoming the most expensive painting ever sold.
Salvator Mundi literally means “Savior of the World,” and it’s believed to be one of fewer than 20 da Vinci paintings in existence. But while a chorus of scholars have attested to its genuineness, not everyone is convinced it's a Leonardo original.
Among the skeptics is New York Magazine and Vulture’s senior art critic Jerry Saltz. He claims that the style of the work doesn’t make sense, given the artistic historical context in which it was painted. With up-and-coming art stars like Michaelangelo and Bottacelli nipping at his heels, da Vinci would be embarrassed to revert to old-fashioned Byzantine portraiture at that point in his career, Saltz asserts. He says the style of the painting instead suggests it probably was made by a da Vinci pupil.
"The second I saw Salvator Mundi in the flesh, I knew it was dead," Saltz told VICE News. "In his entire life, Leonardo never painted anybody dead-on with their chest directly on this way."
The painting also has a muddled background.
After going missing for 150 years, it suddenly appeared in 1958, when it was bought for $60 from Christie’s. At the time, it was believed to have been the work of Giovanni Boltraffio, a painter in Leonardo’s studio. New York art dealer Alexander Parish purchased it in 2005, and in 2008, it was authenticated as a real da Vinci by experts using a host of scientific methods.
In 2013, the painting was sold in Paris for somewhere between $75 and $80 million to Yves Bouvier, who sold it for $127.5 million to Russian billionaire Dimitry Rybololev. Rybololev flipped it in 2017 for $450 million, with Christie’s overseeing the sale to Abu Dhabi’s Department of Culture and Tourism.
But after several planned unveilings, the Lourve Abu Dhabi has so far declined to display Salvator Mundi — or even confirm its whereabouts.
Jerry Saltz explained to VICE News why he thinks the most expensive painting in the world has never been seen by the world.

https://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/leonardo-salvator-mundi
The newly discovered Salvator by Leonardo, the world’s most costly picture, is one of his most notable creations, in which he used his ‘science of art’ to transform a stock subject into a profound expression of the ineffability of the divine.
We will look at the remarkable story of its discovery, its conservation and scientific examination, the research into how it works as an image and its provenance. We will also look at the scandalous events of its ownership and how it came to be where it is now.
Gresham College has offered free public lectures for over 400 years, thanks to the generosity of our supporters. There are currently over 2,500 lectures free to access.

Leonardo da Vinci is one of history's greatest artists and thinkers. Only about 15 of his paintings are known to exist and one was thought to be lost forever. Leonard painted that masterpiece, called "Salvator Mundi" (Savior of the World) around 1500. It was owned by no less than three kings and, in 1763, it disappeared. This video tells the story of that incredible painting, how it was rediscovered in 2005, and what happened when it went to auction at Christie's in November 2017.
