Murakami Takashi

"My lonesome cowboy" the figure art work Takashi Murakami (Modern artist) was at the auction of  Sotherby's of U.S. in  New York on 14th, and it was made a bid for  15,160,000 U.S dollars (about 1,595,000,000 yen).

To a high price to largely exceed an expected sum (3,000,000-4,000,000 U.S dollars), big applause arose from a meeting place.  

The figure of the naked man that Murakami made this work in 1998, it is 101.6 in. in height.

I wonder if this really worth that much...
