Another Auction

In June 2006 Ronald Lauder bought the painting from Altman. Ronald is the son of Estée Lauder. The painting was traded for whopping $135 million. It was a record as no painting had ever cost this much of money. Lauder later brought the painting to Neue Galerie Museum in New York. The painting now is put on public display as wished by her aunt Adele who died in 1925. This was one of the many stories that are attached to this painting.
