The 5 most expensive painting in the world | Top 5 List
Every year the prices in the art market soar. Here's our classification of 5 paintings that have broken all records in history and are the most expensive in the world.

5. N ° 6 (Violet, Green and Red) by Mark Rothko.
Price: $ 186 (₹14,075) million.

Made in 1951 by Mark Rothko, this painting was purchased for $ 186 million by Russian businessman Dmitry Rybolovlev in 2014. In addition, it is one of the works involved in the “Bouvier” affair which opposes Dmitry Rybolovlev to the Swiss art dealer Yves Bouvier accused of fraud.

4. Number 17A by Jackson Pollock.
Price: $ 200 (₹15,135) million.

Father of abstract expressionism, Jackson Pollock is famous for his dripping technique which he used a lot from 1947 to 1950. An innovative process is illustrated in this canvas, and was acquired, at the same time as Interchange by Willem Kooning cited above, by billionaire Ken Griffin during a private sale in 2016 at the initiative of producer David Geffen (60 th fortune in the world according to Forbes and director of Dreamworks studios).

3. The Card Players of Paul Cézanne.
Price: $ 250 (₹18918) million.

This canvas has been the subject of several versions. The first composition included four characters, but gradually Paul Cézanne reduced the number to keep only two figures enhanced by an increasingly dark background. There are five known versions of the Card Players, kept at the Musée d'Orsay, Courtauld in London, MET in New York, the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, and one that belonged to the Greek shipowner George Embiricos before being sold for $ 250 million to the Qatari royal family.

2. When Are You Getting Married? by Paul Gauguin and Interchange by Willem Kooning.
Price: $ 300 (₹22,702) million.

When are you getting married (or Nafea Faa Ipoipo? in Tahitian) was painted by Paul Gauguin in 1892 in French Polynesia while Interchange by Willem Kooning, known for being one of the leaders of abstract expressionism, was produced in 1955. These two paintings are tied in the second place because both were sold for 300 million dollars in private sales.


1. Salvator Mundi by Leonardo da Vinci.
Price: $ 450.3 (₹34,076 ) million.

Originally estimated at $ 100 million, this oil painting costing around 1500 and auctioned by Christie's in November 2017 broke an absolute record: $ 450.3 million. Acquired by a private collector—one of the first works by Leonardo da Vinci—this painting has long been talked about for the mystery that surrounds it.
